Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
What it is
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting is a surgical procedure that restores blood flow to the heart muscle. This is done by using blood vessels from other parts of the body to make a new route for blood to flow around blocked coronary (heart) arteries. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, also called 'beating heart', can be done without stopping the heart and putting a patient on a heart-lung machine.
Minimally Invasive Bypass Surgery

Bypass Surgery
What it is
A coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a surgical procedure that restores blood flow to the heart muscle. This is done by using blood vessels from other parts of the body to make a new route for blood to flow around blocked coronary (heart) arteries.
Mitral Valve Replacement
What it is
The mitral valve is on the left side of the heart. It allows blood to flow from the left upper chamber into the left lower chamber. When the valve is not working well, it may need to be replaced.
Reasons for Procedure
Mitral Valve Repair
What it is
The mitral valve is on the left side of the heart. It allows blood to flow from the left upper chamber into the left lower chamber. When the valve is not working well, it may need to be repaired.
Diagnostic Cardiology
Board-certified cardiologists and highly experienced technologists work together to diagnose conditions and develop an individualized patient treatment plan. Non-invasive techniques are typically safe and painless, allowing patients to resume normal activities almost immediately.
Non-invasive cardiology tests include:
Mitral Valve Disease
What is Mitral Valve Disease?
Mitral valve disease occurs when the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart doesn't work properly resulting in mitral valve regurgitation (leakage) or mitral valve stenosis (narrowing).
Coronary Artery Disease
What is Coronary Artery Disease?
Coronary artery disease is the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, the arteries that bring oxygen rich blood to the heart muscle. This narrowing or blockage is caused by atherosclerosis (sometimes referred to as “hardening” or “clogging” of the arteries), which is the buildup of cholesterol and fatty deposits (plaque) on the inner walls of the arteries that restricts blood flow to the heart.
Aortic Valve Disease
What is Aortic Valve Disease?
Aortic valve disease is a condition in which the valve between the left ventricle (main pumping chamber) of the heart and the aorta (main artery) to the body doesn't work properly. Aortic valve disease sometimes may be present at birth or may result from other causes over time.
