I am delighted to lead the BHVS as president for the next 3 years.
 
I wanted to thank the immediate past president Madalina Garbi for all her work and achievement for the BHVS over the past 3 years. One of her many legacies is the creation of a truly multidisciplinary BHVS council.
 
As president I will work tirelessly to fulfil the mission of the BHVS of improving the care for patients with heart valve disease.
 
BHVS is the uniquely placed to represent all multidisciplinary stakeholders that are involved in the delivery of care of heart valve disease.
 
I aim to ensure to work closely as a team with a very talented and enthusiastic BHVS council to achieve the BHVS mission.
