Atlantic City Area Man ‘Listened’ & Sought AtlantiCare Heart Help

This is such a professionally gratifying moment. As a direct result of our recent on-air and print coverage about the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Heart and Vascular Institute … a listener went to seek diagnosis and treatment for himself.

It’s a very good thing that he did!

I recently wrote a definitive article about how the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Heart and Vascular Institute saved my Brother Jay’s life.

If you missed it, below is a link to my article.

Earlier this week, I received a digital comment through Facebook Messenger.

It speaks for itself. It is from “Connie,” speaking about her husband, “Tom.”

“My husband is an avid listener to your morning show. He was so taken by your brother's heart surgery, he finally went to his Doctor for a check up. His Dr. sent him to Atkantic Care Mainand to have his arteries checked for blockages and hopefully get it taken care of. We are waiting for a date for surgery because he has two 100% blocked arteries.”

“He is wearing a "Life Vest," which is a defibrillator ready at any time. I am glad he listened to your show to make him go to the Doctor. We may have same Doctor as your Brother had for surgery. God Bless you, Harry,” wrote Connie.

I truly love what I have had the privilege to do for the past 31 years. I love it even more right now.

How do you measure a life (potentially) saved? You can’t, as it’s incalculable.

The team at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center is phenomenal in every way.
