Interventional Cardiology/Non-Surgical Treatments
We recognize that invasive surgical procedures may not be the right approach for all of our patients. Today, non-surgical options are safer and more effective than ever before, and offer more options for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Our expert interventional cardiologists provide a full range of the most advanced interventional cardiology options.
Cardiology
Heart failure affects nearly 5 million Americans. It is the only major cardiovascular disorder on the rise. An estimated 400,000 to 700,000 new cases of heart failure are diagnosed each year and the number of deaths in the United States from this condition has more than doubled since 1979. The Center for Advanced Cardiac Care at NYPH is one of the pioneers in the treatment and management of patients with Congestive Heart Failure. Our physicians are recognized as leaders in the advanced treatment of patients with all levels of heart failure and cardiomyopathy.
Surgical Treatments
Performing over 1,600 open-heart procedures a year, the cardiac surgery division is among the best in the world. In addition to on-and off-pump coronary bypass surgery (CABG), we are recognized for our innovation and skill in valve repair/replacement. Our surgeons undertake some of the most complex and challenging cases, such as combined bypass and valve procedures, Ventricular Assist Devices (VAD's) and heart transplants.
