Hello,
I'm scheduled for surgery with Dr Eric Roselli at the Cleveland Clinic on 21 Nov 2024. I'm 65 years old and will probably need an aortic root replacement as well as an aortic bioprosthetic valve replacement. This will be a redo, as my bicuspid valve and ascending aorta were replaced in 2011 by Dr Lars Svensson during the heady days of future TAVR promise. I'm not interested in Svensson doing this surgery. I'm traveling to Cleveland from Colorado, and unfortunately, Dr Roselli's nurse tells me that he doesn't do virtual meetings or calls prior to surgery, so my first meeting with him will be the afternoon before surgery. My local cardiologist did his interventional cardiology training at the CC and recommended Dr Roselli, but I'm wondering if anyone on this forum has had any personal experience with him as their surgeon. I know he's the head of the Aorta Division at CC, and I saw elsewhere on the forum that he may be primarily doing aorta surgeries at this point. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

. Sounds like he’s top notch, and I feel fortunate that my cardiologist has that connection with the CC and Dr Roselli. Thanks again, and wishing you all the best!
