Checking the Vitals with Dr. Firstenberg
Today our guest is Dr. Michael Firstenberg, Chief of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery at The Medical Center of Aurora in Colorado. In this conversation, we discuss how spending a gap year working at the Cleveland Clinic helped him decide to focus on cardiac surgery as a specialty, how research from early in his career laid the ground work for some incredible innovations, and how COVID-19 will impact healthcare innovations moving forward.
