Klara Čičić Hi, I can not recommend exact surgeon, but I just can not stress enough how important surgeon's skill in mitral valve repair and his yearly volume of such surgeries is :) you want the best of the best as repair is an art and a skill unlike replacement which is lot more straightforward, but brings warfarin for life, ticking, etc. Good luck and read as much as you can, educate yourself through this wonderful site. You can do this :)
