Meet Your Cardiac, Vascular and Thoracic Surgery Team

Expert surgeons have recently joined the cardiac, vascular and thoracic surgery program at Huntington Health, an affiliate of Cedars-Sinai, to offer a wide-range of lifesaving and life-enhancing surgeries to local patients.

Innovative treatment options range from complex valve repair and replacement, coronary artery bypass grafting, aortic root and arch surgery to surgical treatment of arrhythmias and minimally invasive valve and thoracic surgeries.

In addition to the already robust interventional and non-invasive options we offer at our Helen & Will Webster Heart and Vascular Center, we now have the best surgical team available around the clock for more complex cases.
