About Us
Almost 700,000 Americans die from heart disease and its complications each year – close to one third of all deaths in the U.S. annually. But new technology and new procedures are giving new hope to patients with serious heart and vascular diseases.
Methodist Cardiology Associates and Methodist Sugar Land Hospital are helping to lead the fight against heart disease through the application of sophisticated imaging techniques, complex interventional and electrophysiology procedures and the application of novel therapies.
Together with Methodist Sugar Land Hospital, Dr. Shan is leading the way in the care and treatment of patients from Fort Bend and surrounding areas. In recent years, Methodist Sugar Land Hospital has performed the following Fort Bend County cardiac “firsts”:
- First open heart surgery
- First abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
- First angioplasty with stents
- First carotid artery stenting
- First video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery
- First rotational atherectomy
