Prevea cardiothoracic surgery
Surgery for serious conditions of the heart, lungs and chest.
Expert heart and lung team
Prevea and HSHS St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay offer advanced cardiothoracic surgery programs as part of our comprehensive services. Our cardiothoracic team works together with cardiac surgery, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, vascular surgery and other specialty physicians to provide a full range of heart and lung care.
Our cardiothoracic surgeons perform a variety of procedures, utilizing the latest techniques for heart and lung surgery. They are dedicated to caring for you.
Dedicated cardiovascular ICU
The healing process doesn’t stop at surgery. In fact, recovery care immediately following heart, lung or chest surgery is equally as important as the surgery itself. That’s why we have developed Northeast Wisconsin’s only dedicated cardiovascular intensive care unit (CVICU) at HSHS St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay.
Cardiac catheterization lab
Cardiac catheterization labs at HSHS St. Vincent Hospital offer a full range of diagnostic and interventional capabilities, including minimally invasive surgical procedures. You can receive the care you need, close to home.
