Dave Cormack has successfully undergone open heart surgery and is recuperating in hospital.
Aberdeen confirmed last week that following medical tests on his return to Atlanta, Cormack would be going under the knife, but were reassured that the prognosis for the Granite City native was that he would make a full recovery. It’s been a hectic and stressful season for the businessman, who was in the process of searching for a new manager after Jim Goodwin’s sacking.
Alan Burrows is the incoming chief executive at Pittodrie, and his presence will be vital as Cormack recovers from the procedure, which took place earlier on Friday. And the Dons issued a statement confirming everything went well and Cormack was now in the intensive care unit following the operation. They tweeted: “Earlier today Dons Chairman, Dave Cormack, successfully underwent open heart surgery in Atlanta and is now recovering in ICU. Dave will take time to recuperate and everyone associated with the Club wishes him a speedy recovery.
