I'm sharing Jimmie Cull's e-mail to me, with the group because I think it's very relevant and others may have had the same thought:

"Sarah,
Thanks for the review. Was Dr. McCarthy involved in the summit? The stats quoted me regarding success rate was 98%. Thanks--Jimmy Cull"...end>

"Dear Jimmy,
I can only surmise that Dr. Gillinov was speaking on behalf of Cleveland Clinic’s overall success rate, averaged out for all maze surgeons. 98% could very well be Dr. McCarthy’s personal success rate percentage. I’m sure when a surgeon at CC quotes his success rate to a patient, it is accurate.
Sarah"...............end>
