almost 10 years ago, Dr. Lester perform an Aortic Dissection on my mom. with the grace of God and his expertise, my mother still alive today. Actively moving around. He called my mom an Angel, I will never forget. I also remember the cons, I was told about the procedure. With God by his side, my mom was giving another chance of life. I will forever be grateful
