Just days ago, they performed their 4,000th. That’s 4,000 challenging and delicate surgical procedures such as coronary artery bypass surgery...complex and multiple valve surgeries...delicate aneurysm procedures and many other procedures for a variety of unusual and complex cardiac maladies. On this extraordinary occasion, we salute Dr. Cimochowski and his team of cardiac surgeons, perfusionists, anesthesiologists, anesthetists, nurses and technologists. Their considerable skills and expertise have meant the world to, yes, thousands of patients and their families. And going forward, their accomplishments and experience mean that every member of our community can live in the warm reassuring comfort of this: a truly first-rate heart team is here, on the job, and ready to help if ever - and whenever — you need them.
