Cardiac surgery

As the only hospital in Aargau, Hirslanden Klinik Aarau fulfils a cantonal performance mandate in cardiac surgery. Heart surgeons specialise in the surgical treatment of heart disease. The range of surgery includes bypass operations, heart valve operations, aorta operations, as well as surgery for cardiac insufficiency. With the exception of heart surgery for children and heart transplants, the Hirslanden Klinik Aarau covers the entire range of heart operations.

Innovative collaborations with public hospitals in the field of heart medicine serve as models: Thanks to the collaboration with Inselspital Bern, there is a connection to the university environment. Hirslanden Klinik Aarau also runs the Cardiology Centre Aargau together with Cantonal Hospital Aarau.
