WVU Medicine’s Heart & Vascular Institute celebrated its 10th anniversary last night. Incredible people. True difference makers moving WV Forward. My mom was able to join the celebration because she received life-saving surgery last year at HVI. We are very blessed to have world class healthcare provide by WVU Medicine. @WestVirginiaU @michaeltbenson @HoppyKercheval
