Dorsey Naylor rides her bike on a bike path.

Explore the rapidly evolving world of structural cardiology through the story of Dorsey Naylor of Jericho, Vermont. An avid cross-country skier, hiker and lifelong outdoor enthusiast, Dorsey’s life changed dramatically in 2023 when she was diagnosed with severe mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. Groundbreaking minimally invasive valve therapies helped Dorsey recover much of her heart function and mobility, ensuring she can continue to do the things that nourish her body and spirit.

Structural cardiologists Harold Dauerman, MD, Tanush Gupta, MD, and Rony Lahoud, MD, share insight and expertise on two decades of innovation that have transformed treatment for once nearly untreatable valve diseases; and how adapting a nearly century-old surgical procedure could be life-changing for individuals unable to maintain a healthy blood pressure.
