Meet the Cardiovascular Surgery Team

Our multidisciplinary team comprises four board-certified cardiac surgeons who work with our advanced practice providers (physician assistants and nurse practitioners), critical care and operating room nurses, perfusionists, respiratory and physical therapists, and anesthesiologists to deliver outstanding care before, during, and after your surgery. Our cardiac surgery service team members are trained in CPR and advanced life support (ALS).
