Heart Disease: Surgical Methods to Save Your Life
Preventative care and lifestyle changes can go a long way towards preventing and treating heart disease.

But, these tactics may fall short if your coronary arteries become almost completely blocked.

If you're suffering from blocked arteries, working together with a cardiologist to form a strategic plan is essential in order to save your life.

Dr. Barry Bertolet joins Dr. Susanne to discuss surgical methods such as angioplasty and traditional stents, as well as a new innovation called an absorbable stent.
