Areas of Expertise

Dr Tapas’s practice includes:

• Beating Heart Bypass Surgery: Reroutes blood flow around blocked arteries while the heart keeps pumping naturally without using a heart-lung machine.
• Mini Bypass Surgery: through a small four-inch cut on the left side of the chest to help patients heal faster with less pain.
• Heart Valve Repair and Replacement: Fixes or replaces worn-out valves to ensure blood flows smoothly in the right direction.
• Heart Transplant: Replaces failing hearts with healthy donor hearts to save patients with end-stage heart disease.
• Double Artery Bypass: Uses natural chest wall arteries to create long-lasting bypass channels that protect against future blockages.
• Aortic Aneurysm Repair: Strengthens swollen and weakened main blood pipes to prevent dangerous ruptures.
