George's Story
For George, getting older doesn’t mean slowing down. In fact, after retiring from the Ashtabula police, he stepped out of one uniform and into the next as chief of the auxiliary police.

GeorgeIn recent years, however, he’s suffered from angina. Simply walking to the mailbox would leave him completely out of breath. That’s when George turned to the specialists at University Hospitals Heart & Vascular Institute for help. In treating his condition, UH Doctors used the very latest technique in cardiac therapy: the NOGA XP Cardiac Navigation System.

With it, doctors were able to inject George’s own stem cells into his heart with pinpoint accuracy. This revolutionary process helps alleviate angina and other forms of heart disease by generating growth of new blood vessels. And UH Case Medical Center is the first hospital in Northeast Ohio to use it.

Today, George is feeling like a new man. Or, to hear him say it, “Like a kid all over again.”
