What Others are Saying...

Hear what attendees, exhibitors and faculty say about the conference:

“I think as these guys always do, they are on the leading edge. They're offering more opportunities, they're looking at how people can learn new technology and most importantly, get trained so that they're going to be proficient at it. And I think you see that when you look at the screens because these guys do very good work. They joke around a lot and they have a lot of fun with it, but the quality is so good. And I think that's what they're trying to offer to other people with these courses and the whole educational process-so it's going great!
- Edward Diethrich, MD, Founder, Medical Director, Chief of Cardiovascular Surgery Arizona Heart Institute; Medical Director and Chief of Cardiovascular Surgery, Arizona Heart Hospital

"You know what I like best about this conference, it represents so many partnerships and it reaches out to a lot of different segments that don't ordinarily participate in a conference like this. It is so important for the organizers of this meeting to get a lot of groups together to support a common idea - patient care."
- B. Waine Kong, PhD, JD, CEO Association of Black Cardiologists

“I think that we - NCVH, CIS and Bacchus and many other people here today owe it to the community to do something while we achieve our commercial goals. So I think this venue has turned out to be exactly what we're looking for!”
