Yesterday at #JamesCookHospital we performed 10 #TAVI procedures in 1 day. Our patients are all awake, and the majority have only paracetamol. Of these 10, 7 were well enough to go home the same day! What an achievement! @SouthTees @ccu_jcuh @EdwardsLifesci @Edwards_TAVR

Thank you @CedarsSinai& @SmidtHeart for a great ceremony. Emotional speech by Alan Kwan. I'm glad the kids can be proud of their dad. Couldn't make it without my wife @NatanzonShirly and my cofellows. @kaveh_med @napjak @AnnaKateBarton @Bgheyath @k_kuronuma and Donghee Han.

Don't be sad because it's over, smile because it happened.

Happening now ⭐️🙌🏼 our very own @kaveh_med presenting on the relationship of MFR (on PET Rb) and survival in patients with cardiac amyloidosis 👏👏 #ACC2023 @csmcbiri @DongheeHan31 @NatanzonSharon @napjak @AnnaKateBarton @k_kuronuma 🫀

[Sharon Natanzon @NatanzonSharon]

Amazing lecture by my colleague @Bgheyath at #ACC23. Talented clinician and a rising star in advanced cardiac imaging.

What a fantastic turn out of @CedarsSinai cardiovascular imaging department. 6/7 fellows were able to make it because @DongheeHan31 is holding down the fort. Missing @AnnaKateBarton 💔(not pictured the illusive @napjak and the captain Dr Berman) @csmcbiri #ACC2023 #Cardiotwitter
