Director's Description
Emory's Adult Congenital Heart Center is an ACHA ACHD Accredited Comprehensive Care Center, specializing in the lifelong care and monitoring of adults with congenital heart disease. Emory is the only adult congenital heart program in Georgia and one of the largest programs in the country.
Our multidisciplinary team includes adult and pediatric cardiologists, congenital cardiac surgeons, electrophysiologists, interventional cardiologists, nurses, social workers and imaging specialists. Because we know transition from pediatric to adult care can be difficult, our team includes a nurse practitioner who provides transition liaison services. We also work in partnership with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to help smooth the transition from pediatric care to adult care for people with CHDs.
Congenital heart conditions can often cause complications and health concerns that affect more than one's heart. With that reality in mind, we have developed a network of collaborative partners across a range of specialties, within the Emory Healthcare system and beyond. These professionals have clinical interest and expertise in treating or managing care for people with CHDs.
We draw from this diverse network to provide the most appropriate care as efficiently and conveniently as possible. Whether the need is genetics counseling, orthopedic surgery, obstetrics care or other specialized care and services, our team will work to coordinate the best care and follow-up plan for the patients we serve.
