Hi @fordsubmariner and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Glad to have you! The Cardiovascular division and Cardio-thoracic surgery have always been available, The expansion just made room for their program areas since Mayo is a teaching hospital.
Here is the link to the division where you can see a list of doctors.

Are you needing to be seen for something particular?

Thanks for your warm welcome and helpful reply @amandaburnett! Glad to be here!
I'm glad to learn that The Cardiovascular division and Cardio-thoracic surgery have always been available.
After a recent stress echocardiogram, an early glimpse of the result summary shows I was given a differential diagnosis that included a small VSD in the muscular region of the septum.
I'm scheduled to meet with my cardiologist on Nov 30, but I've read that surgery may be an appropriate treatment. If I'm gonna have heart surgery, I would want it done at The Mayo Clinic Florida, so I'm doing some early contingency planning.
Do you know approximately what the wait times are like for such surgeries there?
Thanks again for your warm welcome!

@fordsubmariner I'm having a nuclear heart scan next Monday, much to my disdain. Don't want to but am having issues that need to be addressed and who but my Mayo doc??? I'm very pleased with the cardiology care. Maybe we'll see each other there......There's a lot of building and expansion going on right now.
Taking good care of my body and improving my life greatly.
Blessings as you walk this journey. elizabeth
