The most experienced team of cardiovascular surgeons in the world, with over 40 years of experience.
Our surgeons are the founding members of the surgical team at The Texas Heart Institute in Houston's Texas Medical Center. They have performed more than 115,000 open-heart surgeries, a record unmatched by any other surgical t eam in the wo rld.
This experience is the reason many patients with high-risk conditions due to the advanced stage of their cardiovascular or heart disease are referred to our surgeons. Often these patients require the level of surgical skill and experience not available elsewhere. It is not uncommon for our surgeons to successfully treat patients with conditions that have been deemed hopeless by others.
