Our pediatric cardiology specialists offer children comprehensive cardiac care for congenital (present at birth) and acquired (developed later) heart conditions.

Ours is the only program in South Florida affiliated with an academic medical center. This means children with heart conditions have access to cutting-edge medical science, including clinical trials, the latest technology, and up-to-the-minute research.

Our pediatric general cardiologists are experienced in diagnosing and treating a wide range of heart conditions in children, including:

Congenital heart defects
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a term used to describe a group of heart problems that are present at birth and affect the structure of the heart and/or the large vessels near the heart. There are many types of CHD. Some may be detected before birth and, in some cases, can be treated before birth. Other types are not found until after the baby is born, during childhood, or in adulthood.

Acquired heart conditions

• Arrhythmias (irregular heart rhythms)
• Cardiomyopathy (weakening of the heart muscle)
• Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart)

Other cardiac conditions

• Heart murmurs
• Hypertension (high-blood pressure)
• Syncope (fainting)
• Chest pain related to heart conditions
• And more

Our goal is to provide thorough, compassionate care to help your child live a healthy, active life.
