Pediatric Cardiology
Your heart is the hardest-working organ in your body. Keeping your heart healthy is the foundation for a healthy life.
At Stormont Vail Health, our young heart patients — those under age 20 — work with a pediatric heart care team that’s specially trained in treating the unique needs of children. We also provide supportive services such as nutritional counseling or financial assistance to patients and their families.
We recommend that all children receiving cardiac care continue to see their pediatricians. The pediatrician can provide primary care services — such as annual physicals, immunizations and well-child visits — to make sure that your child’s entire body remains healthy.
Conditions We Treat
Treatment Options
Once we’ve diagnosed the heart problem, we create a treatment plan that’s individually tailored for your child’s personal needs. Treatment comes in many different forms, from simple monitoring to daily medication, to a procedure that can correct a defect.
