One of the top three for heart in this country. She was diagnosed at the Cleveland Clinic, the number one heart hospital for years.

I had wonderful care from skilled nurses and aides, care that went beyond duty or kindness at TVRH.. They spotted the things that needed to be spotted and they were immediately dealt with. I am grateful for the hospital and to God for the outcome.
I am so sorry you had those heart issues recently. I pray for a quick recovery.

My mom had a pacemaker installed 3 months ago and yesterday we got to bring her home from the hospital, she had a heart valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. She is doing well and I pray you do the same.
