Jeffrey's Profile

I was diagnosed with aortic stenosis at about 13 years of age and later was diagnosed with bicuspid aortic valve. I also have an ascending aortic aneurysm. I am now 45 and in the past year the condition seems to have worsened. I am still asymptomatic and feel terrific but have been told that my numbers meet the criteria for surgery. I am currently starting to look at surgeons and valve options. I am considering the Ross procedure and I am going to NY in Feb to meet with Dr. Paul Stelzer.
