I am very excited to announce that Baptist Health South Florida’s Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute just became the newest sponsor of HeartValveSurgery.com.
Since 1987, Baptist Health South Florida has been on the forefront of transforming heart valve disease care by integrating advanced treatments, minimally invasive procedures and artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance patient outcomes.
Led by Dr. Tom C. Nguyen, a world-renowned heart valve expert who has performed over 6,000 heart valve repair and replacement operations, Baptist Health is recognized for its unique approach for treating debilitating and life-threatening valvular defects including aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation.
“HeartValveSurgery.com has developed a novel and impactful platform for patient education and empowerment,” stated Dr. Nguyen, director of minimally invasive valve surgery and chief medical executive of Baptist Health Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute. “Our teams will work together with the common goal of providing excellent outcomes for patients struggling with heart valve disease.”
Launching Robotic Heart Surgery at Baptist Health
In addition to these advancements, Baptist Health is proud to launch its Robotic Heart Surgery program, offering patients cutting-edge capabilities for robotic valve surgery. This program enhances precision, reduces recovery times, and provides innovative treatment options for patients in need of valve repair and replacement.
Excellent Outcomes for Heart Valve Patients
Baptist Health Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute brings the expertise of cardiologists, heart surgeons, imaging specialists, anesthesiologists, physician assistants and nurses to optimize the treatment of valvular defects and related cardiac conditions including atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease and aortic aneurysms.
“Patients need to understand their treatment options for the lifetime management of heart valve disease,” states Dr. Nguyen. “At Baptist Health Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, we are committed to using a shared-decision approach with our patients to determine the safest, most durable procedures that often utilize minimally invasive techniques including transcatheter therapies.”
Baptist Health Microsite Launches at HeartValveSurgery.com
To help educate patients at HeartValveSurgery.com about Baptist Health and its approach to all forms of surgical and interventional valve therapies, we just launched a new Baptist Health microsite at this link.
