Doctor Q&A: What Should Patients Know About TAVR?

Written By: Adam Pick, Patient Advocate, Author & Website Founder
Published: July 10, 2024

Hey everybody!

We just posted a new educational video with new medical insights and research about the use of minimally-invasive transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. The video features Dr. G. Michael Deeb, who is the Inaugural Herbert Sloan Professor of Cardiac Surgery at the University of Michigan Health in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As you may know, Dr. Deeb is an aortic valve expert that specializes in TAVR which requires no incision to the patient's chest or ribs.

Keep on tickin,
Adam
