Abstract

During my decades in cardiology, I have witnessed extraordinary progress in treating all forms of heart disease. For patients, this progress is a blessing. For me, it has been thrilling to participate by applying my scientific knowledge to further developments that bring hope to patients and allow them to live fuller lives.

In the daily work of seeing patients, I was cognizant of the advances made in cardiology and their contributions to improving patients’ lives, but it was when I compiled a slideshow for a retiring colleague in 2014 that I reviewed the progress made over the nearly five decades I had spent in medicine. It was truly revolutionary.
