In mid-November, 2007, Pediatric Cardiology Associates (PCA) joined
Pediatrix Medical Group. This was prompted because of our increasing
patient demands and the need to facilitate the addition of clinical and
administrative infrastructure. Pediatrix is the country's largest provider of  
pediatric cardiology services, with nearly 100 physicians providing care in 8
states and 13 metropolitan communities including Denver, Phoenix, Dallas,
Miami and, now, Albuquerque. PCA continues to be New Mexico's
comprehensive provider of pediatric cardiac services to infants, children and
young adults. Our physicians have been serving New Mexico since 1976 and
are the only local providers of infant and pediatric
cardiac surgical
procedures and
therapeutic catheterization, including ASD, patent foramen
ovale & PDA closure and vascular stenting. We also provide a comprehensive
arrhythmia and pacemaker service including catheter ablation and ICD
implantation. PCA operates a comprehensive community-based outreach
clinic system, allowing children to be followed in one of 7 communities
outside Albuquerque. PCA is affiliated with
Presbyterian Hospital, the largest
tertiary care hospital in New Mexico and the hospital most preferred for
overall quality and patient satisfaction for the last 10 years. It is home to the
Presbyterian Heart Center and the Presbyterian Children's Medical Center,
New Mexico's fastest growing facility for medical and surgical pediatric care.
INTERVENTIONAL CATHETERIZATION
PCA and Presbyterian Hospital provide comprehensive pediatric cardiac
interventional services.
Read about the program and our 2009 results. To
insure the highest quality and best outcomes, the
American Heart
Association
, the American College of Cardiology and the Society of Cardiac
Angiography and Interventions (SCAI)
have stated that interventional
procedures in infants and children should be performed only at facilities
where pediatric cardiology surgical back-up is immediately available.
