Stanton Rutledge - Back to Making Movies

In August of 2022 Santa Clarita resident Stanton Rutledge underwent valve replacement surgery at Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital. “I’d been dealing with A-fib (Atrial Fibrillation) for about ten years. My cardiologist Shahe Garabedian MD, recommended valve replacement surgery last summer,” Stanton said.

While hospitalized at Henry Mayo Stanton was told about Henry Mayo’s Cardiac Rehabilitation program. “I wasn’t sure I wanted to do it,” Stanton said. But he started the program in November.

“After about the tenth session I started feeling really good, and by Christmas I felt so much better,” he said. “It’s made a total change in my life. I haven’t felt this good in years.”

Stanton says there’s more to cardiac rehabilitation than the exercise routine. “They also provide you with a lot of good information about heart health,” he said.

“The staff there is awesome,” Stanton said. “They treat every patient like they are the most important person there. “

Stanton is now back out on the golf course. Moreover, the actor, who appeared in the first Fast and Furious movie, in Pleasantville, and several other films, is now back in front of the camera.

“I’m back to doing things I enjoy doing,” he said. “I’ll be working in three movies this coming year.”
