Director's Description

The Adult Congenital Heart Program at Stanford specializes in treating adults who were born with congenital heart defects. Although most patients will have undergone corrective surgery, some may not have been previously treated, or may have recently discovered complex residual conditions requiring therapy involving drugs, interventional procedures, or surgery.

The Adult Congenital Heart Program at Stanford offers:

1. Leading cardiothoracic surgeons who are experts in repairing congenital heart lesions across all age groups.
2. A highly specialized program specifically designed for adolescent and adult patients with congenital heart defects.
3. Advanced treatment options for pulmonary valve repair in patients with tetralogy of Fallot, transcatheter ASD closure, and pulmonary valve replacement, as well as alternative therapies such as ventricular assist devices and heart/lung transplantation.

We offer patients comprehensive diagnostics, lifestyle counseling, medical management, and interventional and surgical treatments for the full spectrum of conditions related to congenital heart defects. All of our cardiologists are board certified in adult congenital heart defects. We work with our referring providers to ensure that their congenital heart patients are managed in a sub-specialized and collaborative environment that offers the best specialty treatment options available.

The Adult Congenital Heart Program at Stanford—a collaboration between Stanford Children's Health and Stanford Health Care—is an Adult Congenital Heart Association (ACHA) Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) Accredited Program.
