Adult Healthcare Providers
Our goal is always to work with the healthcare providers our patients currently see. We use a co-management model that allows our team to address the specialized congenital heart disease (CHD) while the referring physician, such as a cardiologist, primary healthcare provider or other specialist, continues to follow our patients’ other medical issues.
You’ll find a collaborative partner in the care for your patients when you choose to work with us. To learn more, contact us at 855-245-9013.

-
Specialized TrainingShow
-
Our congenital heart specialists have experience in the complex procedures an ACHD patient may have had in childhood. They have the expertise to review scans, understand the physiology, determine proper tests and conduct specialized procedures based on surgeries and repairs done in childhood.
-
Shared CareShow
-
We team with other doctors—from adult cardiologists to primary healthcare physicians to OB/GYNs and other specialists—and make decisions together with you and the patient. This approach means our patients benefit from the care of a doctor who knows them well, and specialists who know CHD well.
