Advanced cardiothoracic expertise and comprehensive care.

Our heart, vascular, and thoracic teams work as a team to deliver complete care and personal attention. You can depend on a treatment plan that gives you the best possible results. We use minimally invasive or hybrid approaches — procedures that combine minimally invasive methods and open surgery — and robotic-assisted surgery whenever possible to let you get back to your life as soon as possible.

  • Heart surgery. Our heart surgeons perform a full range of advanced surgeries, including minimally invasive robotic-assisted surgery, hybrid procedures, and open-heart and off-pump (beating heart) surgery.
  • Interventional cardiology. This minimally invasive method uses tiny incisions and thin, flexible tubes (catheters) to treat a variety of heart and vascular conditions — from heart arrhythmias and blocked blood vessels to heart attacks.
  • Thoracic surgery. Our cardiothoracic surgeons treat a wide range of chest and airway conditions using traditional and minimally invasive procedures — including robotic-assisted, endoscopic, and video-assisted procedures.

Hybrid procedures offer a coordinated, less-invasive approach.

Hybrid procedures bring together cardiothoracic surgeons, heart specialists, and vascular surgeons to perform a single procedure that uses traditional and minimally invasive approaches. This team approach lets us perform a single procedure with less downtime than open surgery.
