Patient Stories: Firpo Grant, Heart/LVAD

Firpo Grant found it hard to walk even 10 steps due to worsening heart failure. The cardiac experts at Maimonides Heart & Vascular Institute implanted an LVAD device to help his heart pump blood more efficiently. Now his family calls him “Mr. Marathon” because he’s so active and “running all over the place”.
