Gail:
In August, 2013 I had a mitral valve repaired, along with two bypasses. Surgery was done at Leesburg Hospital. The surgeon was Dr. Wistar (Tim) Moore. Dr. Moore's specialty is mitral valves. Since we were fairly new to The Villages we knew nothing about cardiac surgeons or what hospital to use. Originally I assumed I would have this procedure done at Shands. My cardiologist told me about Leesburg Hospital's excellent cardiac surgery department and he was right. Dr. Moore is a man of few words but is an excellent surgeon. The nursing staff at Leesburg Hospital is top-notch. I wholeheartedly recommend both.
Good luck. You'll be fine.
