Nemours Cardiac Center, Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program

Director's Description

The Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program at Nemours Cardiac Center was created to provide life long care for people born with heart disease.

To make care accessible, we offer outpatient visits at multiple outreach sites. Families can continue to be seen close to home and avoid long commutes. The main program is located in Wilmington, Delaware, with satellite offices across Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland.

Our goal is to help every patient live the best quality of life possible. Care goes beyond the heart and includes support for dental health, gynecology, obstetrics, and mental health.

The program is led by a team of specialists who have advanced training in congenital heart disease. This includes ACHD cardiologists, congenital heart surgeons, interventional cardiologists, electrophysiologists, anesthesiologists, and advanced imaging cardiologists. Each provider brings experience and expertise in caring for patients with congenital heart conditions.

Nemours Cardiac Center also partners with Thomas Jefferson University Health System. This collaboration ensures that patients have access to a wide range of resources and services across the region.

Every patient is unique, and so is their care. We build care plans around each individual and their family, with a focus on strong relationships and long-term support.
