On this episode of Advances in Care , host Erin Welsh and Dr. Craig Smith, Chair of the Department of Surgery and Surgeon-in-Chief at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia discuss the highlights of Dr. Smith’s 40+ year career as a cardiac surgeon and how the culture of Columbia has been a catalyst for innovation in cardiac care. Dr. Smith describes the excitement of helping to pioneer the institution’s heart transplant program in the 1980s, when it was just one of only three hospitals in the country practicing heart transplantation. Dr. Smith also explains how a unique collaboration with Columbia’s cardiology team led to the first of several groundbreaking trials, called PARTNER (Placement of AoRTic TraNscatheteR Valve), which paved the way for a monumental treatment for aortic stenosis — the most common heart valve disease that is lethal if left untreated. During the trial, Dr. Smith worked closely with Dr. Martin B. Leon, Professor of Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Chief Innovation Officer and the Director of the Cardiovascular Data Science Center for the Division of Cardiology. Their findings elevated TAVR, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, to eventually become the gold-standard for aortic stenosis patients at all levels of illness severity and surgical risk. Today, an experienced team of specialists at Columbia treat TAVR patients with a combination of advancements including advanced replacement valve materials, three-dimensional and ECG imaging, and a personalized approach to cardiac care. Finally, Dr. Smith shares his thoughts on new frontiers of cardiac surgery, like the challenge of repairing the mitral and tricuspid valves, and the promising application of robotic surgery for complex, high-risk operations. He reflects on life after he retires from operating, and shares his observations of how NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia have evolved in the decades since he began his residency.

This week I touch on why it's so important to guard your mind. After a number of high profile celebrity suicides....I am concern that this will become the new normal. Mental awareness is something that should be a daily part of our lives.
My rant this week is why we as women of color shouldn't care about Taye Diggs and his kind. The negative connotation associated with Black women can only be broken by us. It's time we open our minds and be open to love other races. We got options too and should explore them.
This week episode my frustration is heard on why we stay silent on Black-on-black violence. I refer to rapper Offset crews beats up a man on camera and there was no outcry from the black community. So it's not okay for white people to harm us, but it's okay if we harm ourselves? We must call out all bad behavior and not pick n choose on who we should turn a blind eye too.…
2years after his death Prince was the subject of very negative media coverage this week on his health, drug use, and his finances. What we must learn to prepare the next generation on wealth & finances.
This week on the St.James Project: I am re-airing my interview with Musician Brian Culbertson @Yoshi's Oakland. Since that time Brian has a new CD titled "Color of Love" and will be at the NapaValleyJazzGetaway2018. Check it out!
This week I decided to re-air part two of my interview with #JohnJones. His perspective on the things taking place in Oakland. A lifelong advocate for the underdog he talks about the issues concerning his community.
