Cardiac catheter laboratory
Our state of the art cardiac catheter laboratories are leading the way in diagnostic and interventional cardiology. Operating from St Vincent's Private Hospital Fitzroy, our team of cardiologists provide treatment for single or multiple lesions within the coronary arteries.

Cardiac surgery
Our cardiac operating theatre is staffed by team of highly experienced theatre nurses and prefusionists. It also has state of the art computerised monitoring and perfusion equipment and the latest echocardiography machine.
Our cardiac surgeons are on the leading edge of cardiac medicine and offer the complete spectrum of surgical intervention for acquired and congenital adult cardiac disorders. They have a breadth of expertise in coronary artery bypass surgery, off pump coronary revascularisations, valve repairing/conserving surgery, aortic homografts, and surgery for cardiac arrhythmias, in particular atrial fibrillation.

Our cardiac anaesthetists also offer an excellent intraoperative transoesophageal echocardiography service, which ensures optimal surgical outcome especially for the more complex procedures. Autologous blood donation used intraoperatively whenever appropriate also minimises the blood transfusion requirements from other donors.

Cardiac unit
We have a purpose-built unit equipped to provide complex invasive cardiovascular monitoring for general and ambulatory cardiac monitoring.
