I have been told that I need heart valve replacement surgery. I live
in Los Angeles County, Ca.

My main worry is catching a life threatening infection in the hospital.

Can anyone direct me to an exact site on the web that might list
comparisons infection rates in hospitals?

all replies, info, opinions, etc. welcomed!
