Ross procedure

[mbrod1500]

Hi there
Any adults choose the Ross procedure by Dr. Cameron at Hopkins?
If so, please tell me about your experience.

Thanks.

I'm in Australia so my Ross Procedure was done here at Melbourne's Epworth Hospital by surgeon Peter Skillington. I'm now nearly 18 months post-surgery and feel great. The first few weeks were tough, but no different to anybody else here. I was 42 at the time and had no complications. I wrote about my experience for a newspaper ... you can read it here ... http://www.heraldsun.com.au/ipad/a-diary-of-open-heart-surgery/story-fn6bn9st-1226058541539
Good luck with making your decision.
Allison
