Kennedy and Carlene: Heart Twins for Life

After 6-year-old Kennedy Vogt underwent open-heart surgery, she met an unlikely friend who had been through the exact same thing: a kindergarten teacher at her school, Carlene Honor. Hear their stories and how they became “heart twins” after receiving care at AdventHealth for Children and AdventHealth.

A Partnership from the Heart for the Heart

Who We Play For (WWPF) is proud to partner with AdventHealth for Children to provide heart screenings for student athletes and students across Central Florida. WWPF’s mission is to eliminate preventable sudden cardiac death in the young through affordable heart screenings.

Our practice offers ECG screening appointments, where all scans will be reviewed by our experienced cardiologists. Athletes whose ECGs are found to be abnormal can be seen for a full evaluation by our cardiologists, often at the same visit.

ECG screenings are offered with an easy $15 self-pay option that does not require a separate referral.

Specialized Care for Adult Congenital Heart Disease

The care you need if you were born with a congenital heart disease is completely different than the care needed for an acquired heart condition. Our team is specialized in Adult Congenital Heart Disease for teenagers and adults so that they can feel confident in leading healthy lives with the support of our board-certified physicians. We’ll provide guidance on any medical and lifestyle needs you may encounter to ensure that there is minimal risk to your heart and health.
