Tom’s Story

Tom Nolan has been a patient at Prairie Heart Institute since 1992 when he was told he needed a septuple bypass. This bypass surgery gave Tom an additional 27 years with a healthy heart until a vein collapsed in 2019. The preventative care that Tom received at HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital allowed his heart to recover quickly. St. Mary’s will always be his first choice.
