The day after I had an angiogram that I believed would be the key to me getting back to a more normal and more healthy life but that made clear that more intensive care was needed, I was in Dr Brevigs office discussing a triple bypass surgery. This was an appointment arranged the day before by my cardiologist and graciously provided by Dr Brevig just hours before he took off on a two week vacation. It also was at the end of a surgery and on a Friday. He was patient and explained how he saw my situation and the clear need for the bypass surgery. He asked how I understood my situation. I was so grateful to have him consent to help me. I believe my problem is an inherited problem and he is supremely qualified to operate on my heart. So very grateful that everything was expedited and this excellent path forward is being opened up to me. I feel I am in very good hands and am so very grateful to all who have and will work with me.

Considering I was finding out I'm requiring heart surgery, I felt Dr. Brevig was patient and broke things down for me. His scheduler was very nice, explained the process as many times as I needed.
