Jennifer Eisenberg, Cardiac COE Patient
“I wanted to go to where the best would be, not just the best in my area. Everyone did such a wonderful job. When I found out I needed this surgery, I had so much anxiety, and I thought you handled that so well by being so on top of things.”

David Lytle, Cardiac COE Patient
“I heard other employees talking about the Cardiac COE over the years and kept it in mind in case I ever needed surgery. I cannot believe the whole thing was covered – What a deal! I expected to be down for a month, but after just a few days, I could be up and about.”
