Send Gary a NoteAbout Me
My health was going down hill for the past 8 months. I am normally very active, and was getting more and more fatigued each day. My chest would feel tight with little activity. I would get short of breath and dizzy. I found out I had severe arotic stenosis with severe calcification of my bicuspid valve. Also I had an ascending aortic aneurysm. My wife and I traveled from Kansas to Cleveland Ohio where Dr. Aaron Weiss and his incredible team performed surgery on me. I am beyond grateful to the entire hospital, from the housekeepers to Dr. Weiss for the amazing care I received while there. I am recovering back at home and am looking forward to starting Cardiac Rehabiliation the week of February 9th!
