Cardiovascular surgery

Over 95 percent of our surgeries are performed off-pump — meaning the heart can continue to provide blood to the rest of the body during surgery — improving patient safety and decreasing recovery times.
Minimally invasive robotic surgery
We offer the latest in minimally invasive robotic surgery, which provides several benefits in comparison to traditional surgery. Minimally invasive procedures allow for less pain and scarring, reduced risk of infection, faster recovery times, less blood loss and a shorter hospital stay.
