Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The procedure may better be done in your place... it is the person not the place that counts / there are well-trained interventionists all over nowadays; follow up is generally easier in the same place...
Each procedure has specific indications and contraindications – for example in Diabetic, in Left main disease - bypass is better... Leave it to her doctor.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
