Doctor Q&A: High-Risk & Complex Heart Valve Surgery

Written By: Adam Pick, Patient Advocate, Author & Website Founder
Published: September 11, 2024

Many patients in our community have been diagnosed with multiple types of valvular disease and complex cardiac conditions including atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease and aortic aneurysms. For that reason, I was very excited when Dr. Edward Soltesz and Dr. Anthony Zaki from the Cleveland Clinic agreed to participate in a "Surgeon Roundtable" about high-risk heart valve surgery.
