I had the CorMatrix tricuspid valve placed on Monday, Aug 1st. I was discharged from Mayo on Friday afternoon and am home recovering nicely.

Congrats, Tanja. Mayo is a wonderful hospital. I had my AVR in Mayo - Phoenix 2 weeks ago. Keep up the wonderful recovery.

Congrats on your succesful procedure! I'm thinking of getting an evaluation at Mayo for my Mitral Regurgitation to see if I'm a candidate for Robotic. What did you think of Dearani and his team and the care that you received?

I am truly impressed by the level of knowledge, expertise and care given by Dr. Dearani. He helped me when no one else would or could!

The only thing left to do now is shower 2 times with the special soap and use a nasal antibiotic. I don't know what time the surgery is yet; the earlier, the better!
