Cardiology
Heart Bypass Surgery, Heart Valve Replacement, and Angioplasty
Cardiology is the branch of medicine that diagnoses and treats diseases of the heart and blood vessels. It covers conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart valve disease, heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias), heart failure and congenital heart defects present from birth. Care ranges from tests that show how the heart is working, through catheter-based procedures, to open-heart and minimally invasive cardiac surgery, and is delivered by cardiologists and cardiac surgeons working as one team.
Through Medwell, international patients can arrange cardiac procedures in India including coronary angiography, angioplasty and stenting (PTCA), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), TAVI, pacemaker implantation and ASD / VSD closure for holes in the heart. Your treating cardiologist confirms which option suits you after reviewing your reports.
Cardiac care is available at seven Medwell partner hospitals in Delhi NCR.
