Hi Sam. You may want to give Cryolife the manufacturer of On-X a call in GA and simply enquire who the high-volume centres/surgeons are in your area. Great if they provide you a few names which you can then cross reference with the Surgeon Finder facility on this website.

Carlos Banuelos Hey Sam, I too had to ask around before I found a surgeon who routinely uses the on-x valve as their mechanical valve of choice. I spoke to an MSL at Cryolife who was very helpful. In the end, I felt most comfortable at Cleveland Clinic. I was told that most of the surgeons there use the on-x if going mechanical. I was also told by the MSL from Cryolife that you want a surgeon who is familiar with that valve as the sizing can be a little tricky. I had a surgeon at Stanford tell me that he would be happy to use the on-x valve but had never done so before. As a result, I ended up making the long trip from CA to Cleveland, but couldn’t be happier with the results. Good luck.
