, Nov 30, 1998 12:00AMDear Scott,
I'm not sure what surgery you are referencing but the surgeons here at the Cleveland Clinic perform most types of surgery. You can find out some information about them at the website address below. The length of time before surgery would depend on the type of surgery and the surgeons schedule.
I hope you find this information useful. Information provided in the heart forum is for general purposes only. Only your physician can provide specific diagnoses and therapies. Please feel free to write back with additional questions.
If you would like to make an appointment at the Cleveland Clinic Heart Center, please call 1-800-CCF-CARE or inquire online by using the Heart Center website at www.ccf.org/heartcenter. The Heart Center website contains a directory of the cardiology staff that can be used to select the physician best suited to address your cardiac problem.
