There are plenty of well-meaning people on Talk of the Villages, but none of them have malpractice insurance.
Not a wealth of info, OP is looking for experience from who they have used for ICD implantation. Most ICDs are implanted in Special Procedures, it’s a quick procedure, with specials staff, rep from implant company and physician, radiology. Just looking at a name of physician is not going to answer questions.

OP since you have been told you need an ICD, who do they Recommend.

. Does your cardiologist insert ICDs, if not I am sure his office will be the best place for advice, Plus you need to stay in your insurance system.
