Pamela Pugh - From Routine Evaluation to Life Saving Response

As a public health expert, Pamela Pugh always understood health risks, but surviving a cardiac arrest gave her a deeply personal perspective. While undergoing testing for possible cardiac issues ordered by her primary care provider, Pam suffered a cardiac arrest. The team at MyMichigan CardioVascular Institute (MCVI) responded quickly and saved her life. Profoundly grateful, today she has an implantable cardioverter defibrillator to monitor and correct irregular heartbeats and she's following up with her heart care team regularly.
