Chip's heart transplant story

Twenty five years ago, film producer Chip Richie recovered from a case of pneumonia. Shortly thereafter he became short of breathe just walking up the stairs to his office. Despite a lot of arrhythmias, physicians controlled the condition with different medications and minimally invasive procedures. As the years passed his condition worsened, but he wasn't a candidate for the newest supportive technologies. He was placed on the donor heart list in April 2021. Within weeks he received a new heart and began to feel the presence of something different inside him. He felt like the new kid in town. Now he can happily rewrite the ending to his story, give back and be worthy of his extension of life. Chip and Brian Lima, MD, heart surgeon at Medical City Heart Hospital, describe the transplant process.
