About this work

Description

Last in a 3-part series giving an insight into the work of three top surgeons. This programme looks at the work of cardiac surgeon Stephen Westaby of the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. Jim Braid is dying from heart failure and too sick to survive a transplant, but could be saved by a pioneering procedure. Another patient, Valerie Rogerson, faces a delicate operation to replace a worn-out heart valve.
