Few hospitals in the nation rival our successful patient outcomes in the treatment of cardiac and vascular diseases. For many years, we have set the standard in diagnosing, treating and educating patients with heart problems.

The Maimonides Heart & Vascular Center is one of the most comprehensive cardiac centers in the nation, offering medical and surgical care for both adult and pediatric patients. Each year, we perform thousands of noninvasive procedures, interventional procedures in our catheterization and electrophysiology labs, and minimally invasive and open heart surgeries.

The Heart & Vascular has a tradition of excellence stretching back to the 1930s and continuing through today. In fact, the Federal Government, the Alliance for Quality Health Care, and HealthGrades are among those that have recently honored us for our excellent cardiac and vascular services.

We take a team approach, partnering with referring doctors, cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, nurses and professional staff, and, most importantly, the patient and their family.
