I agree with going to and consulting the people who do the most heart surgeries.

Our daughter has had some very unusual and scary things done to her heart and we soon learned that her best options were to go where the expertise is and where they perform a LOT of the same or similar procedures, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly and being part of a teaching facility keeps them really up to speed..

I would go to Shands or Mayo in Jacksonville.
