Our Leadership
Our Services
Comprehensive Pre-Surgical Evaluation
Before any procedure, we conduct thorough evaluations to assess your heart health and overall condition. This includes detailed diagnostic tests, risk assessments, and consultations to ensure you are well-prepared for surgery and understand the process.
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)
For patients with severe coronary artery disease, we perform CABG surgery to restore blood flow to the heart. This procedure involves using blood vessels from other parts of your body to bypass blocked arteries and improve heart function.
Valve Repair and Replacement
We offer surgical solutions for patients with heart valve disorders, including repair or replacement of damaged valves. Our team utilizes advanced techniques to improve valve function and alleviate symptoms such as shortness of breath and fatigue.
Aortic Surgery
Our department provides surgical treatment for aortic conditions, such as aneurysms or dissections. We perform procedures like aortic valve replacement and aortic aneurysm repair to address these critical issues and improve cardiovascular health.
Congenital Heart Surgery
For patients with congenital heart defects, including those present from birth, we offer specialized surgical interventions to correct structural abnormalities and enhance heart function. Our approach is tailored to the specific needs of each patient, including pediatric cases.
Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery
Where appropriate, we offer minimally invasive techniques that involve smaller incisions and reduced recovery times. These procedures aim to achieve the same outcomes as traditional surgery with less impact on your body.
Post-Surgical Care and Recovery
After surgery, our team provides comprehensive care to support your recovery. This includes monitoring your progress, managing pain, and providing guidance on rehabilitation and lifestyle adjustments to ensure a successful recovery.
Cardiac Rehabilitation
To support your long-term heart health, we offer a cardiac rehabilitation program that includes supervised exercise, education, and counseling. Our goal is to help you regain strength, improve cardiovascular fitness, and adopt heart-healthy habits.
Patient Education and Support
We believe that understanding your condition and treatment options is crucial. Our team provides clear, accessible information about your surgery, recovery process, and ongoing care. We are here to answer your questions and address any concerns you may have.
Compassionate Care Environment
From your initial consultation to follow-up visits, we strive to create a supportive and empathetic environment. Our staff is dedicated to ensuring you feel comfortable, respected, and well-cared for throughout your surgical journey.
