Nemours Cardiac Center, Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program

Director's Description

Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program at Nemours Cardiac Center’s has been established to provide seamless lifelong care to the growing congenital heart disease population. The patients do not need to transfer care to a different health care system making the transition to an adult congenital team effortless. In keeping with this philosophy, the program offers numerous outreach sites for outpatient care so patients and families can continue be seen locally and avoid long commutes. NCC ACHD program is located in Wilmington Delaware, with satellite offices located throughout Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. To accommodate your busy schedule, we offer visits during traditional business hours, evening hours, and week. The program focuses on achieving the highest quality of life for our patients and offers holistic care including support for dental, gynecological, and mental health and obstetric care.

Our cardiac team is comprised of board certified ACHD cardiologists, congenital heart surgeons, cardiac cauterization
interventionalists, electrophysiologists, cardiac anesthesiologists, advanced imaging cardiologists, all who have formal training and experience managing congenital heart disease within their areas of expertise. Nemours Cardiac Center has a collaborative partnership with three major health care systems within the surrounding area, of Thomas Jefferson University Health System, ChristianaCare Health Care System and Cooper University Health Care.

The program provides a robust provider driven patient centered care which of greatest value to the patients and their
families. The program customizes care for every patient as no two patients with congenital heart disease are alike.
