Your Heart is in Experienced Hands

Heart Disease. It can seem to strike suddenly. Its symptoms can be mild or debilitating, intermittent or persistent. Heart Disease can be diagnosed as a mild, easily treatable condition or it can be life threatening requiring major, complex surgery. That is why the best cardiac programs are those that are prepared for any possibility - from medical evaluation and management to cardiac catheterization, angioplasty and surgery.

Dr. Shani and Dr. Frankel perform medical evaluation and management to cardiac catheterization, angioplasty and surgery.At Maimonides, you will find one of the most comprehensive heart disease programs in the nation. Nationally respected cardiologists, interventional cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons work side-by-side to make sure that heart patients receive every level of care they require when they need it.

Recovery is as important as the surgery itself. Current scientific research shows that rehabilitation, which includes exercise and lifestyle changes, can help reverse the debilitating effects of arteriosclerotic heart disease and cardiac surgery. After a procedure, Maimonides aims to help patients regain and maintain a healthy cardiovascular system and improve their quality of life. Our multi-dimensional approach addresses the lifestyle risk factors that impact a patient's heart disease through state-of-the-art care, free lectures, support groups, individualized treatment plans and physician referrals.
