Pediatric Heart and Vascular Services

When your child has a heart condition, the rest of the world seems to stand still while you pursue the best care and treatment. Sutter Health walks with families through that process, providing comprehensive and compassionate care from diagnosis to treatment and recovery.

Our pediatric cardiovascular programs are led by board-certified specialists in pediatric cardiovascular surgery, pediatric cardiology, pediatric anesthesia and pediatric and neonatal nursing.  We invest in the latest diagnostic and surgical equipment designed especially with children in mind.

We also offer a Child Life program that works with you, your child and hospital staff to make the hospital experience as smooth and positive as possible. These services include therapeutic and recreational play, surgery tours, coordination with your child’s school, and fun distractions and entertainment.

With our heart specialists, your child will be in capable hands. Our Heart and Vascular Centers have earned numerous national awards and recognitions, including:
