With three advanced cardiac catheterization laboratories, including a hybrid operating room, we conduct precise diagnostics and interventions. Our electrophysiology lab and 64-slice dual-source CT scan offer detailed heart imaging, vital for accurate heart valve disease diagnosis.

We perform over 2,100 cardiac catheterizations annually, reflecting our extensive experience in heart health management. Our cardiac MRI and cardiac perfusion scan further aid in assessing heart valve function and structure.

For advanced heart valve conditions, we offer sophisticated surgical options. Our surgical team excels in various treatments, from valve repair to replacement, ensuring the best possible outcomes. Post-surgery, our cardiac rehabilitation program supports patients in recovery and ongoing health management.

Collaboration is key in our approach. Specialists from different areas work together, ensuring a holistic approach to patient care.
