Expert Heart Team review for Atlanta area patients. Virtual consultations with 48-hour turnaround.
Atlanta's cardiac surgery landscape is dominated by two strong programs: Emory University Hospital, a nationally ranked academic center with expertise in valve surgery, aortic disease, and heart transplantation, and Piedmont Heart Institute, one of the Southeast's highest-volume cardiac surgery programs. WellStar Kennestone and Northside Hospital add community cardiac surgery capacity. The metro performs approximately 3,500 cardiac procedures annually, making it the largest cardiac surgery market in the Southeast. Atlanta serves as the cardiac surgery referral hub for much of the Southeast — patients from Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, and rural Georgia travel to Atlanta for complex cardiac care. This regional draw means Emory and Piedmont see higher volumes of complex cases, building substantial expertise, but it also means long wait times and scheduling challenges for patients traveling from out of state. WhiteGloveMD provides Atlanta and Southeast patients with expert Heart Team review that can be completed before traveling for an in-person surgical consultation. Our virtual analysis helps patients arrive at their Atlanta appointment with a clear understanding of their condition, surgical options, and the right questions to ask their surgeon.
Atlanta patients and the broader Southeast population benefit from our ability to provide pre-consultation expert analysis. Our Heart Team review helps patients arrive at their Emory or Piedmont appointment prepared, informed, and ready to engage meaningfully with their surgical team.
