WVU Medicine Launches Heart Valve Microsite!

By Adam Pick on July 21, 2016

I am very excited to announce that WVU Medicine just launched a Heart Valve Microsite at HeartValveSurgery.com!

WVU Medicine, which is located in Morgantown, West Virginia, is really taking on heart disease. WVU Medicine just recruited world renown heart valve specialist, Dr. Vinay Badhwar, to lead the cardiac center. And... The WVU Heart and Vascular Institute will be headquartered in a new $200 million, 10-story tower on WVU Medicine's main campus which is scheduled to open in January 2017. The WVU Heart and Vascular Institute will additionally be home to WVU Medicine's statewide efforts in cardiovascular quality and research, clinical education, outreach, and statewide program development. See the new WVU Valve Microsite.

"I am deeply honored to come to the proud state of West Virginia to lead this important new venture with the fine team at WVU Medicine. With the collaboration of superb colleagues in cardiology and surgery and with the full strategic and fiscal support of WVU Medicine, I embrace its clear direction to build a comprehensive heart and vascular institute focused on innovation and advanced therapy," Badhwar said.

Dr. Vinay Badhwar

On behalf of our community, many thanks to Dr. Badhwar, the entire WVU Medicine team, Anthony Condia and April Henry for joining forces with HeartValveSurgery.com as we continue to educate and empower patients with heart valve disease!!!

Keep on tickin!
