Heart Centers: Specialized Treatment

Shorter, Safer Procedures
We have the world's first IMRIS imaging therapy suite for structural heart disease. This technology lets us get better views of your heart and blood vessels without taking X-rays.

Worried About Open Heart Surgery?

We’re constantly working to develop and improve less invasive procedures for cardiac care. That means many procedures that once involved open heart surgery are done with smaller incisions and shorter hospital stays.

Get more heart treatment options.

  • Surgeons and cardiologists who provide care to over a thousand patients every year
  • More chest surgery operations than any other program in the state and more than most in the nation
