I have a dilema I am trying to deal with . I had a heart attack in May and had angioplasty with 2 stents , As I learn more about what an internist does and is ,I am slowly beginning to question whether they are valuable to post surgery care or should I remain with the Cardiologist heart surgeon who did my operation ?
