Heart care for a lifetime

Of every 1,000 children born, nine have heart conditions ranging from mild heart murmurs to those that require surgery. If your child has a heart condition, such statistics do not reflect your reality. Because 100 percent of your focus is on your child.

We share your focus. Our team of physicians dedicates their lives and careers to caring for your child’s heart. Our pediatric cardiologists and our pediatric cardiovascular & thoracic surgeons specialize in treating children’s hearts.

From a minor murmur to a severely malformed heart or chest, we begin diagnosis and treatment even before a child is born. In addition, we visit dozens of Pennsylvania communities with high-tech diagnostic tools—just to catch problems early. A team of Geisinger physicians will continue with treatment and follow-up care through your child’s entire adulthood.

From the first heartbeat you hear before your baby’s birth, we’re dedicated to your child—for a lifetime. more more
