What exciting enhancements are coming to the Heart & Vascular Institute?

Many including growth in our valve repair/replacement program and its innovative Valve Clinics, where patients can see all the clinicians involved in their care in one visit and one place. We’re also broadening our program for congestive heart failure and our focus on women’s heart health. Wellness and prevention are other key issues we’re addressing and are becoming every bit as important as treatment. Our goal is for you NOT to have to come in for a heart problem!
