I appreciate the doctor and staff's concern about my condition. I am hard of hearing and it can sometimes take a doctor repeating himself for me to hear and understand.

For the first time in my life, the Doctor (Dr. Aguilera) listened to every question I had and even used a white board to draw pictures so he could explain what was wrong with my heart
