I see you are local hence me having a number of friends with your last name as i am from new bedford. That being said, i had mitral valve repair at mass general in boston 2 years ago. So far no leaks but i have read that is not unusual. My cardiologist at mgh is dr. Dal bianco who is a mitral valve guru. My surgeon was dr. Melnitchuck who i have referred to a couple of friends with good results. His claim to fame is minimally invasive mitral valve surgery. If this is not of interest to you, just disregard it. If it is i can provide you more contact data. Happy to help. Good luck.
