Re: Heart surgery - what hospitals do you recommend?
Yes, US News rates Cleveland Clinic #1 for about 13 years running.* I would be concerned about going with "the best doctor" at a mediocre hospital.* The doctor is with the patient a few hours...the rest of the staff and facility are with the patient for several days.
