Paul David: Coronary Artery Disease

October 8, 2024

Paul is one of many thousands of patients across the nation and world whose heart problems run in the family. His father had a quadruple bypass at age 50, dying 10 years later of a massive heart attack. While Paul didn’t see himself following in his father’s footsteps, that changed when he was facing severe blockages in his right arteries.
