The multidisciplinary team of affiliated physicians at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth work collaboratively to provide comprehensive care to babies prior to birth, infants, children and young adults with complex heart conditions. Continued advancements in nonsurgical treatments enable the physicians to provide patients with conservative care, when appropriate. When pediatric surgery is required, the team of specialists provides specialized care focused on the best possible outcome for each child.
With a Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and a dedicated Children’s Heart Institute Intensive Care Unit at Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital – named one of the top 50 best children's hospitals nationally in Cardiology & Heart Surgery by U.S. News & World Report – patients have access to the highest level of specialized cardiac care by a team of nurses, affiliated physicians, therapists and other allied healthcare professionals specialized in pediatric heart conditions.
