Cardiothoracic Surgery Section - Adult Cardiac
In the Fall of 2001, the physicians of Cardiothoracic Surgery from the Indiana University School of Medicine moved the adult cardiac surgery practice to our new state of the art facilities at the Clarian Cardiovascular Center on the Methodist Hospital Campus. We are excited with our move because it allows us to better meet the needs of our patients and extend the scope of our teaching and research activities.
The Clarian Cardiovascular Center represents the consolidation of all adult cardiovascular services. It is the result of years of planning between the physicians of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Clarian physicians and administration.
Our patient care is enhanced and provides patients and physicians with the following:
- Dedicated Cardiovascular beds.
- Dedicated operating facilities.
- Cutting edge research facilities with the best equipment and technology.
- Parking facilities dedicated to patients and visitors of our facility.
