#8,000 is on the books! It’s an honor to have achieved this milestone across two esteemed healthcare institutions—Lehigh Valley Health Network and now at Jefferson Health.
One thing I know for sure is that success in heart surgery can only come from the team that surrounds you. I’ve been blessed by having the most talented and devoted teams across two fine networks, for nearly 35 years.
Too many to thank, but to my love, Bonnie, and our amazing daughters, Lana and Julia, thank you for putting up with my long hours and endless stress.
Most of all, to my patients and their families, for trusting in me to care for them in their times of need.
