Expert Cardiac Care, Close to Home

When you need cardiac surgery, experience matters. St. Joseph’s Health provides expert, personalized cardiac surgical care to treat a wide range of conditions that affect the heart. Our board-certified cardiac surgeons are among the most experienced in the region, offering the latest trans-catheter, minimally invasive and open surgical techniques.   Our cardiac surgeons take a multidisciplinary team approach, working closely with cardiologists, pulmonologists, critical care physicians, physical therapists and other experts to determine the best course of treatment for your specific diagnosis and needs. Some patients do not need a procedure right away but may need regular monitoring, medication, and lifestyle modification. Others may need a minimally invasive procedure or open-heart surgery.
