    Dr. Forte did my angiogram he explained I had a choice between stents and a triple by pass - both were risky but after thinking about it I chose the triple bypass. He explained the risk with both and let me talk to my family before deciding. My son is a radiologist in Edmonton so got advice from him as well - -he concurred with Dr Forte that the bypass was the best option.

    Dr. S. Fort needs to practice clinical standards according to the needs and welfare of his patients and NOT his opinion! When 2 stints are needed to open a 70% And 80% blockage... THEN PUT THEM IN!

I have learned so much about this and what I need to do moving forward from here.
