Trust your doctor. Your father needs no intervention as he has no symptoms despite block detected. Most probably the collateral vessels on heart have bloomed, opened up now when there is extra load on the heart due to blocks cleared, collaterals vessels ,which lie low when major vessels are functioning well are now active. Heart has lots of vessels, some are tiny with capacity to open up, others are major ones, functioning and getting blocks also. Take care considering every preventive factor for heart. Good to know that echo report (%age of heart function) and other reports are normal.
