Dr. Adams,

Wow, where does the time go to? Not sure myself but I am writing you 6 months post operative when you set me back on course in life with a corrected SAM condition, mitral valve repair and two annuloplasty rings in and around my heart. I know you and Dr. Ani are so very busy but I just wanted to thank you both yet again for taking the time with my case to correct my condition (I was a re-repair). My wife Julie and I are SOOOOOOOO happy to have been able to find both of you and receive such excellent service; I have to say it is a life altering experience. Just imagine, running a flight of stairs without running out of breath, returning to an exercise regiment and resuming a normal lifestyle instead of clutching at your chest, gasping for air.

I also was so taken with the post operative care that when I came in for my one month checkup, Julie and I went back to Intensive Care to thank everyone there who helped me through those first couple of days. I could not have done it without you, Dr. Ani a nd the intensive care gang! I will be sure to put together some photos upon my return from Daytona! For the record, I went back to work four weeks out and to this day, nobody in my industry was ever aware I even had the surgery. It's so good to be able to breathe!

I cannot say THANK YOU enough times but I'll say until you and Dr. Ani are tired of hearing it! I also hope my surgery did NOT impede your golf swing! All the best to you and your team Dr. Adams, you're a life saver!

Your BFF,

Paul K.
