MARIETTA — Memorial Health System’s Department of Cardiology recently celebrated a significant achievement in advanced cardiac care by completing its 100th transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. This milestone was reached under the expertise of Interventional Cardiologist Jason Schott, DO, and Cardiothoracic Surgeon Geoffrey R. Cousins, MD, FACS.

With this achievement, Memorial Health System continues to pave the way for advanced cardiac solutions, ensuring that patients receive the best possible treatment close to home.
