Our Approach to Care
Our Approach to Care
If a damaged heart valve does not close properly, it can leak and blood can flow backward. A leaky valve forces the heart to work harder and eventually can cause heart failure. That’s why it’s crucial to treat heart valve disease early. Open-heart surgery was once the only option. Through one of the country’s most experienced heart valve programs, NewYork-Presbyterian now offers less invasive heart valve treatments.
