ICU-Docs! The best!



Meet our behind the scenes team caring for patients after surgery. The intensivist is a physician coordinating and providing care for patients in the ICU following surgery. They can be boarded certified in critical care but also have back ground in anesthesia, Internal medicine, pulmonary medicine, surgery or Pediatrics. Working closely with the nursing team and the surgical team they are the glue who keeps us together and focused during the most critical time.  These two, shown here with Chip have been exceptional to work with and provide care for our patients.

Dr. David Morrison is returning for his third Team Heart trip. An anesthesiologist from the Gundersen Clinic, in LaCrosse WI. He traveled with CARDIOSTART on a cardiac surgical  trip before we met.

Dr. Norm Yunis is a pulmonary medicine intensivist and works at North Memorial in Minneapolis, MN. This is first Team Heart trip.

They received the highest complements from the ICU nurses this year--which given the incredible nurses we have,  great praise!
