Congenital Heart – Texas Adult Congenital Heart (TACH) Center

The Texas Adult Congenital Heart (TACH) Center provides adult congenital heart disease (CHD) patients a safe, smooth, uninterrupted transition of healthcare from pediatric specialists in the early stages of their lives, to a medical team capable of addressing their adult healthcare needs and lifestyles, enabling these patients to live longer, healthier lives.

The TACH Center's integrated network of specialized care providers, associated hospitals and shared technologies enable patients with congenital heart disease to receive outstanding care from birth to old age. At the age of 18 or older, patients have seamless continuation of care from pediatrics to an adult setting. Our multidisciplinary team of experienced CHD specialists can continue to advise patients on health and lifestyle choices for their adult needs, whether that be physical challenges, exercise options or family planning appropriate for their physiology.

The Texas Adult Congenital Heart Center began as a collaborative effort across the Baylor College of Medicine departments of cardiology and pediatrics, Texas Children's Hospital and the Texas Heart Institute at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital. Today, we proudly offer the highest level of comprehensive and compassionate medical and surgical care, backed by the combined technologies and research of our world-class medical institutions.
