Minimally invasive techniques result in reduced post-operative complications and allow many patients to go home within a few days, sometimes the same day as their surgery. Patients receive personal support - pre-surgical testing and admission all the way through recovery and beyond - by our clinical coordinator, a skilled cardiac nurse whose mission it is to ensure all goes smoothly, every step of the way.
