Education

Our division provides cardiology teaching to undergraduates, medical students, residents, and fellow physicians. Our division also provides education and assistance to practicing physicians and allied health care providers throughout the state of Iowa and beyond to help with proper management and referral of patients with cardiological disorders and acquired heart diseases.

Fellowship Program

The division's ACGME accredited Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship Program of over 30 years has proven success in the development of physician researchers who practice all over the country. These dedicated fellows and outstanding faculty who mentor them comprise one of the best pediatric cardiology divisions in the country. 

Clinical Care

Dedicated staff have expertise in acquired heart diseases. The division provides the only expertise for electrophysiology, diagnostic, interventional and transplant services for children and youth in the state of Iowa. Skilled surgical support and exceptional critical care postoperative support have outcomes that have excellent results in national databases. The division has a multi-purpose diagnostic and interventional procedure lab which is constantly expanding and including state-of-the-art technologies.

Because Iowa is a rural state, faculty and staff share expertise with referring physicians through outreach clinics, service contracts, and telemedicine. Referring physicians and other health care providers throughout the Midwest rely on our services. Staff members are involved with families who participate in camps, walkathons, and community activities to support children with cardiac conditions and their families.
