ESC Working Group on Cardiovascular Surgery
Our mission is to promote greater interaction and cohesion between cardiac surgery and other cardiology communities, we strive to deliver more efficient and effective patient care.
Who We Are
Uniting cardiac surgery and cardiology for better care
We’re bringing cardiac surgeons and cardiologists closer together – because when we work as one team, patients benefit most.
By promoting a heart team approach, we make space for shared decisions, deeper understanding, and truly personalised care. It’s about combining expertise, listening to every voice, and putting people at the centre of everything we do.
