At �ٺ���Ƶ Cardiothoracic Surgery Associates—Garden City, our renowned heart and vascular experts diagnose and treat complex conditions affecting the heart, lungs, chest cavity, esophagus, and blood vessels. We specialize in the latest robotic-assisted and minimally invasive surgical methods while providing patients with proven quality care to achieve optimal outcomes. Our customized approach to treatment includes meeting with patients and their families to get their input regarding medical plans and surgical decisions.

Cardiac and Thoracic Care

Our physicians treat a wide range of cardiac conditions, including the following:

• aortic aneurysm, including aortic root aneurysm
• aortic dissection
• aortic valve disease, including aortic valve insufficiency and aortic valve stenosis
• atrial septic defect, or an opening in the upper chambers of the heart
• cardiac myxoma, or tumor
• coronary artery disease
• heart rhythm disorders, including atrial fibrillation (AFib) and atrial flutter, bradycardia, genetic heart rhythm disorders, ventricular arrhythmias, and supraventricular arrhythmias
• hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
• mitral valve disease, including mitral valve regurgitation

Doctors at �ٺ���Ƶ Cardiothoracic Surgery Associates—Garden City also treat a variety of conditions affecting the lungs, esophagus, and chest cavity, including the following:

• diaphragm disease
• esophageal cancer
• hiatal hernia
• lung cancer, including lung carcinoid tumors
• mediastinal tumors, or growths in the chest area that separates the lungs
• mesothelioma
• pleural effusion, also known as water on the lungs

Our team of physicians and medical and administrative staff work together to provide a thorough evaluation with compassionate care in a comfortable setting.

Specialized Treatment

Once a diagnosis is made, our surgeons discuss treatment options with patients and their families and create a personalized plan to help them return to their normal routines. Our surgeons offer multiple cardiac treatments including the following:

• aneurysm repair
• bloodless surgery
• cardiopulmonary bypass using a pump that functions as the heart and lungs
• catheter ablation, also known as cardiac ablation
• coronary artery bypass graft
• high-risk cardiac surgery
• minimally invasive and robotic mitral valve repair
• pericardiectomy, or surgical removal of the membrane surrounding the heart
• robotic cardiac tumor removal
• thoracic aortic aneurysm repair
• transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)
• tricuspid valve repair
• valve-sparing aortic root replacement

Our accomplished surgical team also provides various thoracic treatments including the following:

• bronchoscopy
• endobronchial ultrasound to diagnose lung disorders
• esophageal surgery
• lung biopsy

Our thoracic surgeons work closely with oncologists and interventional radiologists at Perlmutter Cancer Center at �ٺ���Ƶ Hospital—Long Island to perform robotic and minimally invasive procedures, including lung cancer surgery such as lung resection, lobectomy, and segmentectomy.
