The scope of doctor's services
Cardiac surgery consultation
A cardiac surgery consultation includes an assessment of the health status of a patient with heart and circulatory system conditions, eligibility for cardiac surgery, and discussion of a treatment plan. The physician conducts a detailed interview, performs a physical examination, and, if necessary, orders additional diagnostic tests, such as an ECG, echocardiography, or stress testing. The goal of the consultation is to develop a personalized treatment plan that will help manage heart conditions and improve the patient's quality of life.

Specialization: Cardiac surgery – advanced treatment of heart diseases
Cardiac surgery is a branch of medicine that deals with the treatment of heart and circulatory system diseases through surgical procedures. Cardiac surgeons perform procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting, heart valve surgery, aortic aneurysm repair, and minimally invasive procedures such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). In cardiac surgery, the use of modern technologies is crucial, minimizing risk and shortening patient recovery times. Advances in this field offer heart disease patients the opportunity to improve their quality of life and long-term health.
