ONLINE HEART SURGERY REVIEW

Online cardiac consultation before heart surgery.

Before you agree to heart surgery, specialist physicians independently review your complete record and complete one clear written report. Add a live physician consultation only if you want it—without a referral or a trip to another hospital.

No referral or call is required to purchase. Begin securely online from home.

Your individual risk in context

When applicable, STS PROM, EuroSCORE II, and AATS risk models are considered alongside the details those calculators cannot fully capture.

Options and tradeoffs in plain language

Open surgical, minimally invasive, catheter-based, and medical paths that may be relevant to your case are organized for the next conversation.

05

A check for what may still be missing

Incomplete workup, unresolved questions, and additional studies to consider with your treating team are called out before you decide.

Practical next steps

Leave with a concise set of questions and a clearer path for talking with your current physicians, another surgeon, or your family.
