Based in Visalia, Kaweah Health has made a name for itself as the region's leader in heart care through the support of board-certified cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, and vascular surgeons who work with Kaweah Health's dedicated heart team. This team is made up of physicians, perfusionists (highly-specialized health professionals qualified to take care of your heart and lungs), and registered nurses specially trained to care for critical care patients. Together, we work as a team to provide patients with integrated and scientific-based medicine – all the specialized care and support you need for heart care right here in Visalia. Patients are provided 24-hour care both before and after surgery.
