About Me (In My Own Words)
Dr. first heard a murmur when I was 26. When I turned 50 it was always heard. Follow up testing showed a bicuspid valve with an aortic aneurism. At 56 my cardiologist advised me surgery was in the future and I should find a valve center. He hinted at the Cleveland Clinic and I bit. After the second 9 month visit the bells went off and they told me surgery was recommended within in 1 year. Officially it is a bicuspid aortic valve with stenosis on both sides of the valve. The aortic aneurism is 5.0 mm so off I go. Dr. Kalahasti is my cardiologist out here and Dr. Eric Roselli is my surgeon. April 9, 2020 can't get here soon enough.
