I had the Mini Maze surgery by Dr. Randall Wolf on Nov 13, 2023. I recommend that anyone with A-fib should spend time researching this treatment.
If you are interested in the WMM surgery, make sure to check out these 5 items:
1. Wolf Mini Maze website– information about the surgery and Dr. Wolf, including a full video of the surgery and how to contact his office to schedule a virtual consult.
2. Wolf Mini Maze Facebook Group– This group is wonderful, very active with lots of people who have gone through the surgery. If you have questions, you can get reliable answers here. Even if you are not on Facebook, it is 100% worth joining just to get in this group. Create a new email on Gmail or Hotmail if you don’t want to use your regular account to join Facebook.
3. Wolf Mini Maze: Thoughts From A Surgeon– I wrote this document prior to having the WMM surgery. It summarizes why I decided to have the surgery.
4. My Wolf Mini Maze Experience and Recovery– A day by day account of my surgery experience and recovery.
5. Watch all of Dr. Wolf’s presentations on Youtube. The best one (in my opinion) is “Why Catheter Ablations Fail”. Though the guest speaker on this one is also pretty good 😉 Once you start watching a few of them, Youtube will keep showing you more. You can speed the videos up if you want in the settings.
If you are considering the WMM surgery, I am happy to answer questions via email, but I do request that you read the 2 documents I wrote first (#3 and 4 above). If you have a question that is not addressed there, feel free to email me at evans.seth@gmail.com.
