Hi Jeanne,
I lived in Boston for about 8 years and have much respect for the medical community there. I believe that Mass General and Brigham and Women's came in 2nd and 3rd in the US News and World Report last year. It looks like they come in at 3 and 5 this year: http://www.usnews.com/usnews/nycu/health/hosptl/rankings/specihqcard.htm. Had my father not been able to get in at the Cleveland Clinic, I would have looked more into these 2 hospitals. I do have a friend of the family who lives near Boston and had I believe a type of maze that is non-surgical done at Brigham and Women's. I will contact him to see who his doctor was. Give me a couple of days. Let me know if I can do anything else to help. I know that choosing a hospital and doctor is a difficult and scary process as my family went through this last year for my father. Best of luck,
Elizabeth
