SPOTLIGHT ON LOCAL RESOURCES
UC Davis Children's Hospital Pediatric Heart Center
Doctor Gary Raff at the UC Davis Children’s Hospital Pediatric Heart Center believes that "families with infants with complex congenital heart defects are under a lot of stress and pressure. It's better for infants and for families to have friends and loved ones close at hand during such a challenging time in their lives."
That's why the Pediatric Heart Center offers an integrated, interdisciplinary team of experts including pediatric cardiologists, pediatric nurses and specialists who are available to provide a comprehensive range of diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical procedures for infants, children and adolescents with congenital as well as acquired heart defects. They provide compassionate care throughout a child’s stay and ongoing support during recovery and rehabilitation.
