Published: Nov. 15, 2020, 7:05 p.m.

What if I told you there is a minimally invasive cardiac surgery with only a 5 centimeter incision that replaces the traditional open heart, crack the chest bone, highly traumatic procedure? You would want to learn more, right? Well...it does exist. Today’s in-studio guest is the expert and pioneer of this minimally invasive cardiac approach, Dr. Joe Lamelas. His “Miami Method” is the standard of care and he is teaching thousands of doctors worldwide his method and how to minimize trauma, reduce the risk of surgical site infection, decrease recovery time and lessen the lifelong psychological scar open heart patients are left with. Dr. Lamelas will also discuss his active role in the design and development of new and innovative products used to advance the field of minimally invasive cardiac surgery. I want to thank Nate Yuen, our Healthcare 360 guest for episode #059 for introducing our audience to this fine surgeon, I am so grateful to build on that conversation with this interesting insight with an innovative surgeon who desired a better approach for his patients, and humankind around the world. Major Takeaway for Episode #061: If a Physician says something is impossible, keep researching, keep asking questions, what may be impossible for one doctor may be possible for another!
