    This was very reassuring for me. I’m 70, had an ablation op about a year ago and have been on edoxaban for a couple of years now. I often wondered about the necessity of anti-coagulants & must admit I was one of the people you mentioned who thought they actually thinned the blood, good to know they don’t! Thanks for a very clear, down to earth explanation, much appreciated.

    Thank you so much for this video. You are a great teacher. I am a 67 year old male and have AFIB and been taking Rivaroxaban since turning 65, and I now understand the pro's and con's of taking the coagulant. I am now a subscriber to your channel.

    Your presentations have given me more information and support than I ever got from my Cardiologist over the past 10 years!👍

    Thanks brother. You made me comfortable with taking anticoagulants just by explaining. My doctor should learn from you. You are truly meant to be a doctor. I can tell. God bless you and never be corrupted. Thanks

    Thank you for educating us! If only the rest of your colleagues would take the time to talk with us and not down to us, we would have a better relationship!
