Specialists in Minimally Invasive Treatment
Successful treatment of coronary heart disease requires a personalized approach to care from a team of experienced specialists. At Brigham and Women's Hospital, we offer a range of minimally invasive options, including anticoagulant therapy, coronary angioplasty, key-hole surgery, and robotic surgery. These procedures use small incisions that allow patients to experience less pain, less scarring and faster recovery. In fact, many of our patients go home the next day. In addition, we offer surgical treatments when minimally invasive treatment is not an option.
