Bon Secours Hospital Cork is proud to announce the opening of a new Heart and Lung Centre. This new centre will offer a full range of cardiac and thoracic surgeries under the clinical leadership of Mr Kishore Doddakula, Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon.
With treatments covered by VHI, Laya and Irish Life, the centre is the first of its kind in a private hospital setting in Munster and a fantastic development for patients.
Patients and their families can now access expert and compassionate care for a wide range of cardiovascular and thoracic conditions. From complex heart and lung surgeries to pioneering treatments for respiratory ailments, the innovative facilities and services at Bon Secours Hospital Cork will set a new standard for exceptional patient care.
Speaking about the development, Mr Kishore Doddakula said, “Our cardiothoracic programme will provide patients in the Munster region with timely, high-quality surgery, featuring the only world-class keyhole technique in Munster.”
With this new service, we are delighted to offer our patients comprehensive cardiac treatment, expanding our range of services from specialised care in our catheterisation lab to now providing cutting-edge surgical care.
The opening of the new Heart and Lung Centre has also been praised by GPs and other medical professionals, with Bishoptown GP, Dr Colman Twomey describing it as “a great addition to the excellent cardiology services already provided at Bon Secours Hospital Cork.”
