A First... We're On Boomer TV! Thanks Steve!
This is completely unexpected and amazing! Our website was just mentioned in an interview with Steve Nicklin, a heart valve patient from Washington DC, who had successful surgery with Dr. Marc Gerdisch in Indiana. (So you know, Dr. Gerdisch has treated many patients from our community.)
You might recall that we posted a picture of Steve at our Facebook page immediately following his surgery. To see what happened next, watch Steve's video.
Video available online at:

On behalf of our community, I can't thank Steve enough for sharing his story, his emotions and his success story in this interview. While it's neat that Steve mentioned us in the video, I'm much more happy knowing that Steve is doing great after heart surgery. Also... Many, many, many thanks to Dr. Gerdisch, Nicole, Tara and Vanessa for taking such great care of Steve.
Keep on tickin' Steve!
