Department outline

The division of cardiovascular medicine serves various patients with cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, heart failure, ischemic heart disease, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, arrhythmia, and peripheral artery disease. We have the experts in each specific field and thus can provide a high-quality healthcare for every patient. To maintain the level of healthcare, we make every effort on the training of the physicians.

As an advanced treatment center in this area, our division provides cutting-edge healthcare such as percutaneous transcatheter intervention for ischemic heart disease, transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis, implantable cardioverter defibrillators for lethal arrhythmias, and cardiac resynchronization therapy for advanced heart failure based on a certain diagnosis. Our goal is to support all the patients with cardiovascular disease to overcome the diseases under the principle “Everything is for the patients’ well-being”.
