About Me

Diagnosed in February 2022. Moderate Aortic regurgitation. Appointment April 2024 condition has advanced to severe. Found heart valve surgery online and the website and videos helped me prepare some great questions for my surgeon whom I met yesterday. He was surprised by my knowledge. Thanks for a great website!
