Understanding Your Surgical Options
Heart Valve Surgery Built Around Your Diagnosis
No two heart valve conditions are exactly alike. The right treatment depends on which valve is affected, how it is functioning, the severity of the disease and your overall health. We help connect you with cardiac specialists who can review your diagnosis and determine the most appropriate surgical or minimally invasive treatment options.
We can help you explore care for:
- NMitral valve disease
- NAortic valve disease
- NTricuspid valve disease
- NPulmonary valve disease
- NValve stenosis
- NValve regurgitation
- NCongenital valve conditions
- NMulti-valve disease
- NPreviously repaired valves
Every detail of your care coordinated.
From medical records and specialist consultations to surgery scheduling and travel logistics, our team provides a concierge experience that manages the details from start to finish.

Questions about heart valve surgery for Canadians.
Can my heart valve be repaired instead of replaced?
Possibly. Whether a valve can be repaired depends on which valve is affected, the cause of the disease, the anatomy of the valve and the extent of damage. When a durable repair is achievable, preserving the native valve can be preferred in certain conditions, particularly degenerative mitral valve disease. Immediate Surgery can connect your case with specialists experienced in evaluating repairability.
I’ve already been told I need a valve replacement. Can I get another opinion?
Yes. A recommendation for replacement does not prevent you from seeking a second surgical opinion. Your existing echocardiograms, imaging and reports can be reviewed by a valve specialist to determine whether repair is technically possible and appropriate for your condition.
How does a surgeon decide whether a repair will be durable?
A successful repair is not simply about whether the valve can be repaired. The surgeon must consider whether that repair is likely to function effectively over time. Valve anatomy, disease mechanism, tissue quality, heart function and the surgeon’s ability to achieve a durable result all factor into the recommendation. For some patients, replacement remains the better treatment.
What imaging is used to determine whether my valve can be repaired?
Echocardiography is central to assessing valve structure and function, and advanced 3D echocardiography can provide a much more detailed view of valve anatomy. It can also be used to plan valve repair or replacement procedures before treatment. Additional CT, MRI or other cardiac imaging may be required depending on your condition.
Can heart valve repair be performed without traditional open-heart surgery?
For some patients. Depending on the valve, anatomy and overall health, options may include minimally invasive surgery or catheter-based interventions. Some specialized centers in our network also offer robotic-assisted approaches. The appropriate technique must be determined after detailed imaging and specialist assessment.
What happens if my valve cannot be repaired?
If your specialist review determines that repair is unlikely to provide a safe or durable result, valve replacement or another intervention may be recommended. The objective of the review is not to pursue repair at all costs, but to understand your options and select the approach most appropriate for your heart.
Can Immediate Surgery help me access advanced valve repair techniques not available locally?
Yes. One of the advantages of our network is the ability to look beyond a single hospital or regional program. We have valve specialists and cardiac centers across Canada, the USA and Europe offering expertise relevant to your case, including advanced imaging, complex repair and minimally invasive approaches where appropriate.
