Cardiac Surgery

If you need surgery for a heart problem, it's vital to know you're in the best hands. Our team is led by experienced, board-certified cardiac surgeons and includes highly trained nurses and technical specialists who’ll ensure you receive the highest quality of care before, during, and after your surgery.

St. Luke's is a center of excellence for valve surgery and our surgeons perform hundreds of cardiac surgical procedures each year. Of these, approximately 50% are isolated aortic or mitral valve replacements, mitral valve repair, or a combination of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with valve replacement or mitral valve repair.
