James, you sound well informed, and on top of things. I have to agree with you being lucky to be near the CC. I have never been there, but I know they are No. 1 in heart care. (but no better than Dr. Geiss, the surgeon I had).
I know they have advantages over some of the smaller facilities.
Everyone should feel as I do, that their health care was the best they could of had. That speaks well for the medical people in these hospitals, and I wish they were all this caliber.
I have a strong feeling that you with your doctors help, will choose the right option for your condition. I would guess that it will be No. 3 or 4. They are the only ones that I would consider for myself.
Best wishes and prayers.
