I want contact information for a highly qualified cardiologist in
Orange County, California, that will accept a new patient, and is well
familiar with high levels of C-reactive protien, inflammation and the
risks it presents.

I do not know the answer to your question specifically, but I do know
that the smartest Cardiologist, perhaps in the world, is Maurice
Buchbinder.  He practices at Scripps in San Diego.  I have had the
pleasure of watching him in surgery over a decade, and admire both his
technical skills, up to the moment knowledge of current literature and
of course his excellent manner with his patients.  In my work,
initiating clinical trials with Cardiologist around the globe, he is
the finest.  I would call his office, and see if you could get his
e-mail, and send him a question.  I bet you would get a very rapid
reply, with a learned answer.  (858) 625-4488.
