Cardiac electrophysiology

An arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat, occurs when the electrical impulses regulating the pumping of your heart cause it to beat too quickly, too slowly or irregularly. Arrhythmias can cause fainting, heart failure or even sudden death, but we are here to help.

Our heart doctors specialize in diagnosing and treating arrhythmias. Some of the treatments they provide include:

  • Biventricular and permanent pacemakers
  • Implantable cardioverter defibrillators
  • Pacemaker lead extraction

Heart and vascular surgery

Our heart surgeons and vascular surgeons are especially skilled in the surgical treatment of diseases affecting your body's veins and arteries. To address your unique needs, we use leading-edge tools and techniques, such as minimally invasive technology, robot-assisted surgery, endoscopy and catheter-based therapies.

Some of the vascular procedures we perform include:

  • Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
  • Aortic arch repair and replacement
  • Carotid endarterectomy
  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • Minimally invasive, mitral valve surgery
  • Renal denervation
