Our academic practice consists of over 60 cardiologists, backed by cutting-edge equipment and modern facilities. Within the division of cardiovascular medicine, all the essential resources are readily available to carry out a comprehensive range of coronary and structural interventions. These encompass procedures such as complex coronary intervention, transcatheter valve replacement, as well as edge-to-edge repair for both mitral and tricuspid valves.
We have a vibrant Advanced Heart Failure program, showcasing a consistent upswing in the volume of heart transplants and placements of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). To bolster this, we've established a formal MCS (Mechanical Circulatory Support), ECMO, and Shock team. This expert team is dedicated to promptly receiving and managing the transfer of critically ill patients to our advanced quaternary care center.
Our EP (Electrophysiology) program provides the pinnacle of care, spanning a broad spectrum of services. This includes procedures like complex arrhythmia ablations, laser lead extractions, and closure of the left atrial appendage. Alongside these specialized interventions, we also deliver routine EP care to meet diverse patient needs.
In the realm of imaging, our section is tasked with interpreting complex studies across various modalities, such as cardiac MRI, cardiac CT, and cardiac PET. Furthermore, our imaging experts play an integral role in our structural heart program. They perform and analyze both transthoracic and transesophageal studies of a complex nature.
Beyond these capabilities, our partnership with Children's Hospital of Wisconsin has given rise to a robust adult congenital heart disease program. This collaboration, with the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, a leading institution in pediatric cardiovascular care nationwide, ensures comprehensive and coordinated care across all age groups.
