Fairfax County Supervisor Pat Herrity is recovering in intensive care after an open heart surgery Thursday morning, and doctors have said the surgery went “as expected.”
Herrity announced several weeks ago that he planned to undergo the operation after he saw a doctor for abnormal heart rhythms in November. The condition itself wasn’t dangerous, but while investigating it, doctors discovered that Herrity had an aortic aneurysm and scheduled the surgery, according to Herrity’s office.
