Pramod N. Bonde, MD, is a cardiac surgeon who performs a wide array of procedures, including heart bypass surgery, aortic valve, mitral valve repair/replacement, aortic aneurysm repair, LVAD and heart transplantation. He is an expert at performing so-called keyhole (minimally invasive) surgeries, instead of cracking open the chest. For patients, this approach can mean reduced pain and earlier recovery.

Christopher Maulion, MD, is a cardiologist who specializes in advanced heart failure and transplant. He treats critically ill patients with cardiomyopathy, a spectrum of diseases of the heart muscle that lead to diminished heart function, potentially requiring advanced therapies including heart transplantation and left ventricular assist devices.

As the chief of neurovascular surgery at Yale Medicine, Dr. Matouk has expertise in brain aneurysms, vascular malformations of the brain and spinal cord, carotid occlusive disease, acute stroke syndromes and adult-onset hydrocephalus. “In medicine today, a lot of the work that doctors do is either preventative or palliative,” Dr. Matouk remarks. “However, in neurosurgery we are able to use simple, minimally invasive procedures that can actually change everything for a patient.
