Heart Valve Disease

Why Choose Us

NewYork-Presbyterian’s world-class team of heart specialists leads the nation in minimally invasive heart valve repair and replacement procedures, achieving extraordinary outcomes in one of the nation’s largest heart programs. Our Columbia and Weill Cornell Medicine doctors pioneer major studies assessing new approaches to treating damaged aortic, mitral, and pulmonary valves.

Our doctors performed one of the first transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR), a minimally invasive treatment for aortic valve disease. Today, we are proud to offer the most experienced program of its kind in the country. We see patients and perform TAVR procedures at our hospitals in the Upper East Side, Washington Heights, Queens, and Brooklyn.

Our Team

NewYork-Presbyterian’s cardiologists, heart surgeons, interventional cardiologists, and cardiac imaging experts work together to customize the best care for each patient. Our physicians and surgeons, innovators in the field, collaborate to develop and refine minimally invasive techniques that speed recovery for patients while achieving higher survival rates with fewer complications.

A cardiologist or cardiac surgeon will recommend a treatment option that is right for the patient’s condition, depending on the type of valve disease, the level of damage, symptoms, and patient’s age and medical history.
