The Utah Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program offers care under a team of experts with specialty training in Adult Congenital Heart Disease. Our team is available to patients at three different main hospital facilities in the Salt Lake City area and also offers outreach clinics in Southern Utah and Southern Idaho. Our ACHD accredited Comprehensive Care Center provides care to patients with simple and complex congenital heart conditions, heart disease related to genetic syndromes, disease processes associated with the aorta (Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome), and women with congenital heart conditions who are pregnant or who are considering pregnancy.
