It was over 3 years ago that Dr. Albert saved my life. When I came to see him, even riding in a car was too painful. I had lost much of my muscle and while we didn't know it then, I was in severe heart failure from loss of my LBBB in open heart surgery two years prior. Last year, I was 4th in the Louisville Triathlon/KY State Championships in my age group. But for mistakes on the swim I would have been on the podium. I was 32/225 overall on the bike. I am back in every way. While pacemaker therapy solved my heart failure, I know for a fact I would not have survived the long road back without the miracle Dr. Albert gave to me in August 2021. Thank you Dr. Albert, for giving my life back to me.
