Surgery for Acquired Heart Disease: Past, Present and Future
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the number one killer of American males and females. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), approximately every 33 seconds an American will suffer some type of coronary event and almost every minute, someone will die from it.
Come to a FREE presentation, Surgery for Acquired Heart Disease: Past, Present and Future, and learn about coronary artery disease, valve disease, congestive heart failure, and the history and advancements of cardiac surgery.
This informational presentation is sponsored by Arizona Heart Institute and Arizona Heart Hospital and will be held on Thursday, June 18, 2009, from noon to 1 p.m. at Arizona Heart Institute in the third-floor classroom, located at 2632 N. 20th St. in Phoenix.
David J. Caparrelli, MD, will lead this lecture. Dr. Caparrelli joined Arizona Heart Institute (AHI) as a Cardiovascular Surgeon in July 2008. Dr. Caparrelli received his Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry from Princeton University and his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. Deeply committed to education and the evolution of the cardiovascular specialist, Dr. Caparrelli has served on a number of committees including the Edward B. Diethrich Vascular Surgical Society Fellowship Committee.
Treatment of coronary artery disease or a heart attack is only the first step in restoring good health. It does not cure the underlying condition that caused the problem to develop. Further medical evaluation, treatment, and changes in lifestyle to reduce your risk factors for cardiovascular disease are essential. If you would like to attend this free presentation, please call 1-800-345-4278 or register at www.azheart.com. Seating is limited, so register today!
