  • Dr. Glenn Barnhart discusses what patients should expect after heart surgery at Swedish Medical Center. Patients are usually able to walk and climb steps once they leave the hospital. In fact, normal movement is encouraged. However, heavy lifting is restricted until the patient's incision and bones have healed. The wired bones typically heal in 4-6 weeks. A Swedish staff surgeon and physician's assistant are on call 24/7 to help with any post-operative patient concerns. Swedish on-call specialists are experts in post-operative symptoms. No matter the time of day, a surgeon always calls back to discuss and assess a patient's concerns. For more information visit www.swedish.org...
