Interventional & Structural Heart Care
This specialized field of cardiology uses tiny tubes (called catheters) to find and fix issues that get in the way of your blood flow. An interventional cardiologist uses catheters and stents to do minimally invasive procedures that can treat, diagnose and even help prevent heart attacks.
Structural heart specialists are interventional cardiologists with additional fellowship training specifically in "structural heart" disease. Their focus is on repairing heart valves and chambers using minimally invasive techniques.
As cardiovascular technologies have evolved, John Muir Health has continued to advance our programs by leading the way in using the newest, least invasive techniques. We were among the first hospitals in the Bay Area to offer a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) program.
