Your Instructor

Pam Hascall

My cardiac expertise comes from my own journey through two mitral valve repair surgeries. I’ve dealt with the stress, anxiety and fear and learned how to manage them, I know what to do for myself and my family to get ready for heart surgery, I know what to expect while in the hospital and what to do (and not do) to have the best possible recovery at home.

I have been married to my husband Tim for 26 years and we have 4 children and 3 grandchildren. I enjoy all kinds of exercise - walking, hiking, playing tennis and pickleball. I love to travel and learn about other cultures in our world.
