The Helen B. Taussig Congenital Heart Center
An experienced, multi-disciplinary team of physicians and healthcare specialists makes up the pediatric cardiac team at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. A team of pediatric cardiologists led by Joel Brenner, M.D., along with cardiac surgeons, Duke E. Cameron, M.D. and Luca A. Vricella, M.D., work together in the pre-operative evaluation of pediatric heart patients or adults with congenital heart disease.
The Helen B. Taussig Congenital Heart Center, a world leader in advancing pediatric cardiology care, continues to serve the needs of children from the mid-Atlantic region, around the country, and overseas.
