  • Dr. Craig Selzman is the Dr. Russell M. Nelson and Dantzel W. Nelson Presidential Endowed Chair as well as Professor and Chief of the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery at the University of Utah who specializes in the care of patients requiring heart surgery. He earned his undergraduate degree at Amherst College and medical degree at Baylor College of Medicine. He received his General and Cardiothoracic Surgery training at the University of Colorado and is Board-Certified in both fields. Dr. Selzman was on faculty at the University of North Carolina before joining the faculty at University of Utah in 2008.



    Clinically, Dr. Selzman is the Surgical Director of the Cardiac Mechanical Support and Heart Transplant program and serves as the Medical Director of the Transplant Service Line for the University Hospital. In addition to his role in the advanced Heart Failure and artificial heart program, he specializes in complex valvular heart disease including reoperative heart surgery, adult congenital heart disease, and aortic root reconstruction. He is one of a few surgeons in the Intermountain West with significant experience with minimally invasive heart surgery for a wide variety of disease, and, in particular, mitral valve repair.


    Dr. Selzman is heavily involved with clinical research related to advanced heart failure, transplantation, and ventricular assist devices. He also has an active basic science collaboration with many of our researchers here at the University of Utah. Dr. Selzman is one of a handful of cardiothoracic surgeons that runs a laboratory funded by the National Institute of Health. His research focus is related to examining mechanisms of heart recovery.

    Having had an aortic valve repair 60 years ago. I was concerned about the results of a second surgery. Dr Selzman explained to my wife and I what my options were and what complications could be. We were able to make an informed decision and felt very comfortable with Dr Selzman. My outcome was great and uneventful. Having confidence in your surgeon made all the difference and I am so happy with the outcome

    UH HOSPITALS AND CLINICS

    Dr Selzman gave us a very informative and understandable explanation of my condition and how it could be treated. My cardiologist said he was the best at what he does and he gave us that feeling with a sense of calm and a little humor. Feel very lucky to have him handle my surgery.
