Are you or someone you love facing open heart surgery? Are you scared, anxious, not knowing which surgeon to choose, overwhelmed by what the cardiologist just told you, or are you overwhelmed by all the medical speak? And then there's the medical bills and insurance, not to mention the scheduling and taking care of your daily life tasks while you are managing your health care.
