Enloe’s Structural Heart & Valve Center
At Enloe Medical Center, we’ve earned accolades for our cardiac care, but what makes Enloe really special is the people who are here for you, like cardiologist Shailesh Nandish, M.D. Hear what drives him as part of your heart care team.
Enloe offers Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement by a pioneer in the field. Also called TAVR or TAVI, TAVR is a leading-edge, minimally invasive procedure for treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Using this approach, Enloe’s trusted heart specialists can replace unhealthy aortic valves and deteriorating aortic tissue valves.
Medicines can’t stop or cure aortic stenosis. Having a heart valve replacement is the only effective treatment, and the team at Enloe’s Structural Heart & Valve Center is ready to care for you.
A Team Approach
Our experienced team includes a specialty trained interventional cardiologist, who works with our cardiothoracic surgeon. The team uses a minimalist TAVR approach, which:
- Allows the use of conscious sedation instead of general anesthesia
- Eliminates the need for open heart surgery
- Results in shorter hospital stays
- Facilitates faster recovery and early mobility
- Improves outcomes
- Increases patient satisfaction
