Vascular Surgery - A Team Approach

Specialized Care for Heart Valves

If you’ve been diagnosed with heart-valve disease, it can lead to heart failure and other serious heart problems if not treated properly. The cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons in Cape Cod Healthcare’s High Risk Valve Clinic specialize in diagnosing and treating valve disorders, including high-risk heart valve disease.

Support from Mended Hearts

Because heart disease can be a life-changing event, volunteers from Mended Hearts of Cape Cod, part of a national organization of cardio patients, are available to share their own experiences and lend support before, during and after your treatment or surgery.
