Tom, Dr. Gillinov and Dr. McCarthy are both excellent maze surgeons.
I think there are several good, or excellent maze surgeons listed on the surgeons list, and there are probably some just as good that are not listed. I would probably go with the one most convenient to me and my family.
I know to some people travel is no problem, but in my case and probable several others, travel would make it harder on the rest of the family.
I know of probably a half dozen surgeons that I think it would be up to the patient's choice as to what they preferred.
I was lucky to have a maze surgeon in my home town, and I liked the smaller facility with more of a one on one feel. The Dr. that did my surgery also made the daily rounds to see how I was doing. I had excellent care by the hospital staff, and the surgeon that did the surgery. I have been in NSR from the time I came out of the OR, 6+ years ago. That is hard to improve on.
