The Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program at Nicklaus Children's Hospital serves the ever-growing population of adults who were born with congenital heart defects (CHD). Some people with CHD were diagnosed and treated as children, and continue with us for ongoing care during adulthood. Others were diagnosed with CHD as adults, and come to us as new patients for initial evaluation and management.
The Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program collaborates with adult cardiologists in the community in the transition to care through adulthood.
