John Ortiz - Heart Valve Replacement

If you’re struggling with heart disease,
choose Abington for your care.

Whether you arrive with a heart emergency, are already under the care of our doctors or surgeons, or are seeking a second opinion, our heart experts at The Heart and Vascular Institute talk with you, not at you.

We invite you to explore our comprehensive capabilities:

  • Abnormal heart rhythm conditions, such as atrial fibrillation, can often be treated through minimally invasive methods. Learn more about the exceptional team and innovative treatments at The Pilla Heart Center's Heart Rhythm Center.
  • Heart valves may malfunction, needing repair or replacement. Learn more about the only dedicated valve center in the region, the Porter Institute for Valvular Heart Disease. And find out about all of our expert cardiac surgery services, using the most up-to-date techniques.
  • Heart failure can worsen gradually. The Pilla Heart Center's Comprehensive Heart Failure Program specializes in reversing that process and improving heart function by optimizing medical and device therapies for heart failure patients.
  • Arteries and veins that are weakened or blocked, as in peripheral artery disease (PAD), need treatment by specialists. Learn about our board-certified vascular surgeons and on-site vascular laboratory at the Blank Vascular Center.
