The Cardiac Center of Excellence at VIMS Hospitals is fully equipped to facilitate high-risk treatments locally, including procedures such as Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) to improve blood flow to the heart.

Our surgeons will provide complete evaluation, diagnosis, and surgical treatment for a wide variety of disorders. Our goal will be to provide contemporary, evidence-based cardiothoracic and vascular surgery in a personal fashion. Using an integrated approach to the treatment of heart, lung, and vascular disease, our surgeons will work closely with cardiologists, pulmonologists, endocrinologists, and other specialists to make one’s health our top priority.

Bypass surgery is performed frequently nowadays, both in men and women. Bypass surgery is intended for patients who have clogged (coronary) arteries of the heart and cannot be helped by medications, ballooning, or stenting. Bypass surgery in advanced cases of heart artery disease can be the more promising solution to pursue. Bypass surgery in our time can be performed safely and efficiently, at a very low risk, depending on every patient’s history and concurrent problems.

Your child’s heart is not like an adult’s. It’s not like any other child’s heart. At VIMS Hospitals, we understand that. Our paediatric heart surgeons perform a broad range of children’s heart surgeries and provide the unique care your child needs. They are also part of a highly-skilled, compassionate team that’s dedicated to delivering the best care to achieve the best outcomes for children of all ages.

Heart surgery in children is done to repair heart defects a child is born with (congenital heart defects) and heart diseases a child gets after birth that need surgery. The surgery is needed for the child’s well-being.
