Congrats to Dr. Francis Pagani on receiving the Coeur D’Or (💛of Gold) award from the American Heart Association - Michigan! Dr. Pagani has served Michigan communities for his entire career. He was one of the first surgeons in the U.S. to begin implanting LVADs & has led numerous trials to improve the therapy.
