I can assure you that there aren't a lot of them out there!
Doug
Yes...
Isn't that true!!! I don't know where Hurgada is, but if its anywhere near Florida, then seeing Doug would be worth the trip. Fred Bove is in Philadelphia. Aside from the diving cardiologists, most experienced diving physicians (especially those who have relevant specialist training such as anesthesiology or emergency medicine) will have the correct approach to this problem "sorted out", and will usually have a tame cardiologist they can consult for any tricky problems. The diving anesthesiologists at Duke would be a good bet. The only further piece of advice I have is not to see a cardiologist who does not have an interest in diving.
