My DO, in doing an exam, found that I have a heart murmur. She referred me to get an echocardiogram, which showed moderate aortic regurgitation. I have been having symptoms for quite awhile but thought it was something else. I need to find a good cardiologist. I have been doing lots of research and would like to find a surgeon who does less invasive surgery like a TAVR. My mother-in-law had one of those. I live in Texas.
