Patient verified via Press Ganey

I am very positively impressed by Dr Desai. He explained things very well, and listened to my concerns. I will be undergoing testing soon, and If all goes well, this will be followed by a tricuspid valve tri clip procedure. I want to get some legal documents drawn up (a will) prior to going under anesthesia, so there will be a little delay, but the need for the procedure is not urgent.
