Cardiovascular Surgery
Northwest Hospital & Medical Center and the UW Medicine Regional Heart
Center have joined in developing a world-class cardiac surgery program and interventional
cardiac center at Northwest Hospital.
This collaborative program enables us to provide a full range of services,
from routine diagnostic procedures to sophisticated interventional cardiology
procedures and open heart surgery, with the goal of providing the highest quality
medical services to patients at Northwest Hospital and UW Medicine Regional
Heart Center.
Members of the Northwest/UW cardiac services team meet with you before and
after treatment to ensure that you fully understand the course of treatment
and the care needed after you leave the hospital. By working in partnership
with you, our team of experts - including cardiac surgeons, physicians, and
clinical staff - offer the care you need to improve your short- and long-term
recovery and reduce the amount of time you’re hospitalized. The UW cardiac
surgeons provide the highest level of expertise in the surgical management of
cardiac disease. The UW cardiac surgical team offers comprehensive surgical
services including coronary bypass grafting, valve repair and replacement, aneurysm
repair, and congenital heart disease treatment. Specialty surgical services
such as cardiac transplantation are offered at the UW Medicine Regional Heart
Center.
