Heart bypass surgery

[tamirra]

Does anyone know where i can look for information into whether QEQM hospital in Margate do heart bypass surgery, as my father may have to have this done and my mother is worried that this procedure may have to be carried out in a London hospital and she wont be able to get there to visit him, how could i find this out, i know she could ask the hospital but i was hoping there maybe something on here that would tell her. Thank you.
