David was experiencing fatigue and other symptoms due to aortic stenosis, or calcification buildup in his aortic valve. He qualified to have an aortic valve implanted through the minimally invasive TAVR procedure.  After seeing him breeze through the process and recovery, David’s wife Carol also had the TAVR procedure a year later.  For both of them, TAVR restored their confidence to be active and enjoy a better quality of life.
