On behalf of our patient community, I want to thank the 12 surgeons who helped me film an educational video series at The Society of Thoracic Surgeons meeting in San Diego. I was really humbled that so many awesome surgeons came together to film videos about heart valve disorders, atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease and aortic aneurysms.

Here's Dr. Vinay Badhwar from WVU Heart & Vascular Institute:

The surgeons who participated in the shoot included Dr. Vinay Badhwar, Dr. Husam Balkhy, Dr. Steve Bolling, Dr. Luis Castro, Dr Steve Hoff, Dr. Marc Gerdisch, Dr. Katharine Harrington, Dr. Patrick McCarthy, Dr. Matt Romano, Dr. Eric Roselli, and Dr. Richard Shemin. That said, I thought you might like to see a few pictures from this amazing shoot!

Here is Dr. Patrick McCarthy from Northwestern Memorial Hospital with Katie Bal.

Dr. Kevin Accola from AdventHealth (formerly Florida Hospital) also stopped by for the video shoot.

Again, thanks so much to all the surgeons for helping me film so many great videos at STS. Now, it's time to start editing!!!

Keep on tickin!
