• With the patients with complex congenital heart disease, we usually continue to follow them into their adult life. And that’s a very amazing thing about our center, where we deal with patients while they are inside moms until they are in their nineties.

  We sit with the family as a team with multiple specialties, including pediatric cardiologists, unitologists, cardiac surgeons and OB physicians. They hear one voice, they hear one plan, instead of hearing multiple plans from multiple physicians.
