About Cirugía de Corazón
World-class cardiac care in Mexico, with an emphasis on human warmth
In heart surgery there are no universal solutions. We believe every person experiences this in their own way, and so we talk with you with humanity and clarity to walk you through it.
We are a multidisciplinary group of experts who analyse each case individually. Using cutting-edge technology and state-of-the-art medicine, alongside our clinical experience, we give an honest recommendation about what is right for you.
Our premise
First we build an exceptional doctor-patient relationship with you and your loved ones. Everything else comes after that.
That is not a slogan about bedside manner. It changes what happens in the consultation: time to explain what your studies actually show, plain answers about what each option involves, and a recommendation you can weigh rather than one handed down.
What we do
We are cardiac surgeons. Our work covers valve disease, coronary disease, the aorta and structural heart conditions, and we perform both conventional and minimally invasive and transcatheter procedures.
Being able to offer both matters. A less invasive approach usually means smaller incisions, less pain and a faster return to normal life, and where the evidence supports it for your case that is what we will recommend. Where it does not, we will tell you that plainly.
How decisions get made
Every case is reviewed by a multidisciplinary team and measured against international medical practice guidelines before any recommendation is given to you. You receive a clear proposal together with the alternatives.
The final decision is always yours. We encourage second opinions; seeking one is a normal and reasonable part of deciding about heart surgery.
Where we trained
Our team trained at leading cardiology centres abroad: the Montreal Heart Institute, the University Center of Bordeaux, the University Center of Jena and the Zentralklinik in Bad Berka, the University of Guadalajara, and in Buffalo, United States. That is why we can offer procedures performed only at the world’s best centres, here in Mexico.
What to expect
An initial appointment where we get to know each other and identify how best to help you, and where we ask for the studies needed to assess your case properly.
A review of your complete studies and a physical examination, then a discussion of your condition and the possible treatments. Your questions get answered.
A consensus recommendation from the team, with the alternatives set out alongside it.
