Hi** I'm new to this forum. My Heart doctor informed me Thursday my mitral valve is moderate to severe, leaning to the severe side. I got a pacemaker in feb 2007. Then had a ablation in nov. 2007. At that time the valve was in the moderate range. The chambers are becoming enlarged. He told me investigate a repair and to choose a doctor. I live in so. california, so i'm looking at UCLA. The sites I've been able to find point me to Dr. Richard J. Shemin. Has anyone had him do their repair? Or do you know of another Dr. at UCLA? I'm looking at the robotic method. What do I need to ask in the way of questions?* Thanks For Your Help Dave
