The Cardiothoracic Surgery Program is dedicated to the treatment of all patients, from children to adults, with congenital and acquired heart defects ranging from the most straightforward to the extremely complex. With extensive clinical, diagnostic and surgical capabilities, our program is equipped and staffed to address all aspects of heart failure and transplant care, including heart, heart-lung and lung transplant services. Our nationally-ranked program, which performs over 500 procedures a year, continues to pioneer novel treatment strategies, including hybrid procedures, blood conservation, mechanical assist devices and use of minimally-invasive techniques to improve long-term quality of life.
