Dr Baradarian performed AAV and AVR on me on a Wednesday, home the following Tuesday, Minimal bruising and trauma, and off of opioids by the following Monday. 2 months later walking 45min at 3mi/hr. He is amazing. Everyone I know who had OHS said to be ready to be hit by a sledgehammer. I had more difficulty with a hernia operation 20 years ago. thank you Dr Baradarian for saving my life. Best cardiac surgeon ever
