Faye York of Little Rock began working as an emergency management specialist for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in 2004 and continued until 2024, when she retired to take care of health issues including arterial blockages in her legs and three aortic aneurysms. Although another surgeon told her she was too old for surgery, UAMS Health Vascular Surgeon Dr. Andre Ramdon and a UAMS colleague performed a combined procedure to address both issues simultaneously to shorten the time she was under anesthesia. A year later her aneurysm remains sealed, and she can walk without any issues.
“While recuperating I received excellent care from the staff at UAMS, especially the ICU and the 8th floor nurses. I would recommend UAMS to any and everyone.” – Faye York, Little Rock
