Dr. Marc Gerdisch is a heart valve expert having performed over 4,000 heart valve repair and replacement operations during his career.
Search for heart hospitals that specialize in heart valve treatment.
Rose, the cardiologist said there is no way to determine the cause (calcified? pannus? etc?). It's a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bovine valve.
Debbie, you're too kind. I'm in Dallas/FW and will need to have the re-op locally. Probably in Plano.
Dan, so sorry you're having stomach issues--that is no fun, for sure!
My cardiologist and I agree that I need to find a stellar, maybe even world-class, gastroenterologist, since no one in 10 years has been able to help resolve my issues. I don't want my stomach to dictate which valve I can have again.
