Brian's Profile

I was cruising along, not knowing ANYTHING about bicuspid valves and aortic regurgitation. Now two months later and a battery of tests, I have one cardiologist stating it is time to see a surgeon and a second opinion saying, no its not the right time (I feel fine and have no symptoms--a murmur was heard by my primary care doctor and this whole mess started rolling and gaining speed quick). Anyone have any ideas on how to pick a cardiologist and/or surgeon? And then how to have what done? Valve type, surgery type, root replaced with valve, where to go and have it done? I am swimming here and would love any words of advice from those experienced out there. Thanks!
