Open heart surgery, offered at our Westmoreland Hospital campus, is performed by cardiothoracic surgeons skilled in all aspects of cardiac and vascular surgery - surgeons who live and work in our own communities, providing outstanding care for matters of the heart.
They are also part of a remarkable approach that carefully integrates the efforts of many health care professionals across various disciplines.
Board certified cardiothoracic surgeons Drs. Mark Suzuki and David West have performed over 1,500 surgical procedures in the past three years with results consistently rated as outstanding. Such surgical specialties include:
- Coronary artery bypass grafting
- Cardiac valve replacement/repair
- Minimally invasive procedures for hearts and lungs
- Anti-arrhythmia surgery
Further, cardiothoracic surgical procedures at Excela Westmoreland typically cost less than half the statewide average.
