Cardiac Team

Pediatric Cardiology Team

Children born with heart defects often require multiple surgical or interventional procedures over their lifetime. No other pediatric cardiac program in New Jersey offers as many critical resources solely devoted to the treatment of children with heart disease. The Children’s Heart Center has performed more pediatric cardiac surgery and interventional cardiac catheterization procedures than any other program in New Jersey.
