This book has helped over 47,000 patients and caregivers from diagnosis to recovery.
My first Cardiologist also told me that I didn't need the surgery even though I was symptomatic and had severe regurgitation that was eccentric, so they weren't sure exactly how severe it was! It took a while, but I found a surgeon, had the surgery, and I went through a second Cardiologist before I found a Cardiologist whom I like and trust.
I feel a little better knowing I am not alone in having to make the surgery decision against the advise of my Cardiologist.
