Jimmy Kimmel's son's surgeon discusses his 'very severe form' of heart condition... a month after seven-year-old had third open heart surgery
The lead surgeon who performed surgery on Jimmy Kimmel's son Billy is speaking out about the seven-year-old's 'very severe form' of heart condition.
Kimmel included praise for 'Billy's doctors, led by the brilliant surgeon Vaughn Starnes, cardiologist Tim Casarez and the excellent, hard-working staff, doctors, nurses and nurse practitioners at CHLA, including, but certainly not limited to Misty, Ann, Sylvia, Dana, Caleigh, Nick, Bekah, Julie, Kenny, Caroline, Lisa, Stephanie, Ellize, Ivy, Pam and Carrie came through for us with immeasurable kindness and expertise.' The comedian tipped his hat to the late Senator John McCain, who was the key vote scuttling a bill that would have gutted the Affordable Care Act during the Trump administration. When revealing his son's condition, Kimmel explained: 'Basically, the pulmonary valve was completely blocked and he has a hole in the wall between the left and right sides of his heart.'
