Appointment and Procedure Updates

We are updating some appointment and procedure practices to help lessen the spread of the new coronavirus and COVID-19.

Many Johns Hopkins patients and new patients may now have the option to have a video appointment (telemedicine) with their provider, depending on their healthcare need. If you do not have a device to use for a video visit, you and your provider may decide that a telephone call will meet your needs.
For new patients, please call the department for the service you need.
Existing patients can visit MyChart to schedule a visit.
In some cases, appointments or procedures may need to be rescheduled. If there are changes to your care, your provider will contact you.

The cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and vascular surgeons at the Johns Hopkins Heart and Vascular Institute work together to provide high quality, comprehensive care and the most advanced treatments known to medicine.

Patient Story

Abdominal Aortic Surgery | Ron Rolett’s Story

Ronald Rolett, a retired physician from North Carolina, learned that he had an abdominal aortic aneurysm from a routine ultrasound screening. Rolett became the first patient at The Johns Hopkins Hospital—and at any hospital in the mid-Atlantic region—to have an aneurysm repaired in a minimally invasive way using a graft that was made to fit his specific anatomy. He tells his story about the procedure, recovery and experience with Johns Hopkins Vascular Surgery.
