Getting to the heart of the matter

I have been Dr. Turner's patient for about 25 years. I have had an ongoing issue with frequent PVC's for years. Dr. Turner is quite familiar with that. He is also the one doctor beside my cardiologist who understands the pulse deficit issue. I have never had symptoms with the PVC's. In April of 2023, while at the lung doctor's office, I started to experience cardiac symptoms for the first time and the machines were showing heart rate of 35. I was sent to the ER at AZ Heart hospital. Subsequently, Holter monitor was done. Among the findings were 104 short runs of v tach in 72 hours. I ended up having a ventricular ablation done in June. Between April and June, I had cardiac symptoms a couple times a day. I am a retired RN, but Dr Turner was awesome at explaining anything I didn't understand. It turns out that there are multiple focal points causing the PVC's and I may need to have touch up ablations in the future. It is a great comfort to know that Dr. Turner has my back. He truly cares about his patients, which is why most of his patients that I have met at the MDVIP open houses have been his patient s for over 20 years. He is phenomenal!
