Why Choose Us for Structural Heart Disease Care?

At Providence, we see the life in you. We are committed to making a positive difference in every life we touch.

We know your heart is unique – just like you. We take a highly personalized approach to your structural heart disease care. Your cardiologists meet regularly with other regional experts to discuss your case. These structural heart committees make sure you’re getting the very best treatment, so you don’t have to visit another doctor or specialist yourself.

If your care includes a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), you receive a personalized patient passport to help you keep track of every step of your care. You also partner with a dedicated TAVR nurse coordinator who guides you through the process. We support you and keep you informed every step of the way.

A positive care experience always takes a team! Our cardiologists are experts in the most advanced therapeutic and surgical techniques to treat structural heart disease. Your heart care team may include dedicated structural heart surgeons, radiologists, echocardiographers and other caregivers. We use minimally invasive procedures whenever possible to improve outcomes and reduce recovery times. These include the convergent procedure, a multidisciplinary approach to atrial fibrillation management.

We understand that the impact of heart disease is greater in some communities. Genetics plays a part, but unequal access to great health care is also a factor. At Providence, we make sure each of our patients has access to the best heart care. As part of this commitment, we offer translation services and print publications in multiple languages for our non-English-speaking patients. We also prioritize community heart-health awareness through local events and outreach.

We value, respect and support the racial, ethnic, religious, spiritual, gender and sexual identities of each member of our diverse community. We welcome all patients, regardless of their ability to pay. We aim to treat every patient equally and with dignity – whoever you are, and wherever you are in your journey.
