  • Cardiac Catheterization Lab
    • Coronary and left ventricular digital angiography
    • Right and left heart catheterization
    • Balloon angioplasty
    • Rotational and directional atherectomy
    • Stent implantation thrombectomy carotid angiography and stenting
    • Peripheral angiography and intervention
    • Structural heart — atrial septal defect (ASD), patent foramen ovale (PFO), balloon valvuloplasty, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and MitraClip™

    • Modern 3D mapping system for complex ablation cases
    • Operating Room setting to help minimize implant infection risk
    • Dedicated EP-trained nursing/technician personnel
    • All board-certified, experienced electrophysiologists
  • Treatments for Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)
    • Convergent Procedure: a new, minimally invasive procedure that combines the best of electrophysiology and cardiac surgery treatments to help restore normal heart rhythm for long-time sufferers of AFib.
    • Maze Surgery
    • WATCHMAN Implant to help reduce AFib stroke risk
  • Nonsurgical Procedures
    • Electrical cardioversion: application of an electrical shock to the chest in an attempt to reset the heart’s rhythm.
    • Catheter ablation: inserting a thin, flexible tube (the catheter) to reach the heart by way of the blood vessels.
  • Additional Cardiovascular Procedures
    • Minimally Invasive Valve Surgery, such as balloon valvuloplasty
    • Heart Valve Replacement
    • Aortic Dissection
