In 2025, we reached new heights: performing the first robotic heart transplant in the US and completing our 900th robotic heart surgery procedure.

Heart surgery isn’t something that happens to you, it happens with you. My role as a surgeon is to help patients understand their diagnosis, options, and path forward. Whether we choose a robotic or traditional approach, that decision is based on careful, individualized review. Empowered patients make better recoveries, and every conversation begins with education.

No robotic procedure happens alone. Every successful operation represents hours of planning, collaboration, and trust among a multidisciplinary team. The technology is impressive, but it’s the people, the perfusionists, nurses, anesthesiologists, and surgical assistants, who make it possible. I’m constantly reminded that innovation in medicine doesn’t just come from machines; it comes from people who care deeply about doing things better.

Last week, we celebrated National Nurse Practitioner Week, and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Maria for her unwavering commitment and compassion towards our patients every day. She is a beacon of hope, praised by our patients for the exceptional care she provides throughout a patient’s surgical journey.

As we approach the Thanksgiving and holiday season, I'm grateful and honored to have a supportive team that enables me to perform groundbreaking surgeries, such as the first Robotic Heart Transplant in the United States.

This Veterans Day, I want to express my gratitude to all who have served and to the veterans I’ve had the honor of caring for. It was a privilege to care for one of my heart transplant patients who proudly served in the U.S. Marine Corps. His courage, resilience, and dedication remind me why I do what I do every day. Thank you to all veterans for your service and sacrifice.
