My father was admitted to the VA Hospital in Cincinnati on February 11, 2010 with chest pains. He had been informed several weeks prior that he needed heart bypass surgery… but the VA Hospitals in Cincinnati and Cleveland refused to do the surgery because he was such a high risk…Dr. Patel and the other surgeons saved his life. If they had not agreed to do his surgery, my father may not be here today. My dad is living proof the University Hospital saves peoples lives.
