Stent Treatment at Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute Saved Alex

A second opinion at the Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute changed Alex’s diagnosis for the better. Dr. Juan Pastor-Cervantes, medical director of the cardiac catheterization lab, provided thorough testing, and a corrected diagnosis resulted in a stent being placed in Alex’s heart, instead of undergoing bypass surgery. Dr. Pastor-Cervantes’ expertise and compassionate TotalHeart care spared Alex a much more invasive surgery and had him back to normal activities within days.
