Brad's Journal

M J  Hey Brad, I highly recommend the Cleveland Clinic. I called a lot of places, and they have such an easy setup to get evaluated quickly. They have an online system where you can upload your images and radiology reports onto from your computer. There's no time delay with having to mail anything to them. Their team will look at the images and call you to decide the next steps going forward. It took about 3 business days from me uploading images to getting a call from their nurse practitioner. They are a high volume surgical center performing several robotic minimally invasive mitral valve repairs. 

Rose Madura  Another good option in Indiana is Dr. Gerdisch. Use the doctor finder on this website and type in Indiana. He will pop up first.

Corey Potter  Brad, from Terre Haute just north of you.  I had aortic valve replacement at Cleveland Clinic 7-11 of this year.  It was worth the trip.  Your mitral valve can be repaired by Dr.Marc Gerdisch in Indy at Franciscan, but he is backed up several months.   If you are not in a hurry, he is one of the best.  If you want to get this sooner, I would suggest Dr. Marc Gillinov or one of the other mitral valve surgeons at Cleveland Clinic.  As a third option, Ascension St. Vincent's in Carmel, Indiana is a really good option as well.  Outside of that, I would head to Cleveland.
