My only rebuttal to this somewhat rambling piece is that my heart surgeon looked and acted very much like I expected a heart surgeon to look and act, and he did a great job. I found out later that he's one of the top-rated cardiac surgeons in the US, and that many cardiac surgeons come to this hospital just to study under him. But in support of the thesis, this hospital is not located where one might expect one of the top three heart hospitals to be located.
