We Put Our Hearts Into Your Child’s Care

Our pediatric cardiology experts offer the most advanced tools and treatments available for your little one. We treat the full spectrum of heart conditions, including heart murmurs, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart defects and vascular disease.

In these matters of the heart, our network of experts throughout Florida is here for your child and your family every step of the way, through diagnosis, treatment and beyond.

Our Comprehensive Pediatric Cardiology Programs

Heart conditions in kids require the utmost care, and that's what you can expect from our pediatric cardiology programs throughout Florida.

Fetal Cardiology

Our fetal cardiology experts are here to investigate potential cardiovascular concerns before your baby is born. Working closely with your obstetrician or perinatologist, our specialists use the latest technological advances to take a close look at your child’s heart while they’re still in the womb.

Congenital Heart Disease Care

Approximately 1 in every 125 babies born in the U.S. has a form of pediatric congenital heart disease, a condition that can range from simple to complex. We’ll explore all avenues of treating your child’s condition. If it can’t be managed with medication, pediatric heart surgery may be required, but you can rest assured that they’ll be in the very best hands.

We also provide continuous care as children transition into adulthood. Our experienced cardiologists care for patients born with structural heart conditions and their unique challenges as they age.

Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)

Our pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at AdventHealth Tampa is the only provider of critical-care services for children in north Hillsborough and east Pasco counties. Our pediatric cardiology specialists are available to offer consultations, evaluations and treatments for children receiving care at our hospital.
