Hello

I definitely very much appreciate Dr. Cribier for his work. Both of my parents had to have aortic valve replacements by open heart surgery and mom had to be taken back in 2 hours after hers because of complications. I had a TAVR done this January and was home the next morning doing pretty much anything except lifting any weight, the exhaustion and extreme shortness of breath gone. Before I could barely walk 20 feet without having to stop and rest. Doing great now. HIs technique led to me having a very short recovery time, no pain at all post op and oddly enough no swelling at the insertion site of the catheter. I am exceedingly grateful to him and wish I could have expressed that gratitude to the doctor.
