THE HEART CENTER / CARDIOTHORACIC SURGERY The Cardiothoracic Surgery Program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital is dedicated to the treatment of all patients, from fetus to adulthood, with congenital heart defects ranging from the most straightforward to the extremely complex. As part of The Heart Center, we offer a comprehensive approach to heart care that is based on a multidisciplinary team model, which enables our team to constantly monitor quality of care and patient safety pre-and post-surgery to assure the best possible outcomes. See page 40 for details about The Heart Center.

SURGICAL SERVICES Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s surgical departments have come together with a single, clear focus — to provide optimal outcomes for every child — inside and outside the walls of the operating room. This work is predicated on three core pillars — providing advanced clinical care, performing ground-breaking research and offering industry-leading training programs — that combine to provide the best care for every child. Our faculty are helping to improve the care provided to children around the world by training the next generation of surgeons. Our departments offer the most surgical residency and fellowship programs of any free-standing pediatric hospital in the United States. Training programs are also offered to other surgeons, providing opportunities for them to advance their skills in more advanced techniques such as minimally invasive laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgery.
