Choosing Dr. McGinn and The Heart Institute
Ten days after surgery I was back to my practice, almost full-time.
This procedure should be available to everyone. It is light-years ahead of traditional bypass surgery.
I was surprised to see how quickly I could return to the physical activities I enjoy so much.
The attention they give you is excellent. I felt like the care and service could not have been better.
I quickly got back to enjoying life - making music and spending quality time with my children.
MICS CABG is the wave of the future. The major benefit of the surgery is that you quickly forget that you had surgery.
The surgery was easy compared to other procedures I’ve had. And aesthetically, I’m extremely pleased. The scars are minimal.
When I woke up from surgery, I had no pain and I was actually breathing better.
I was in the right place at the right time. The absolute best care is at The Heart Institute.
