Get an Expert Second Opinion Before Heart Surgery
AI powered surgical clarity for patients facing open heart surgery.
Your incision should be your decision.™
When Lise Smith needed complex open heart surgery, she chose Verus.
Watch her story below.
Are you or a loved one facing heart surgery with more questions than answers?
Have you been told you need cardiac surgery but wonder if there are other options?
Are you scheduled for heart surgery but unsure about your surgeon's experience or your hospital's outcomes?
Are you feeling overwhelmed by a cardiac surgery recommendation and wish you had an advocate in your corner?
Verus can help you move forward with confidence - or step back with certainty.
The truth is - the system is broken. And too often, we find that our patients come to us:
- Assigned to a surgeon, without having been given a choice.
- With an incomplete or unclear understand of surgical risk.
- Having had no prior discussions regarding less invasive or alternative options.
- With more questions than answers, feeling alone, confused, and scared.
