St. Luke's Hospital's Heart & Vascular Institute takes pride in how our cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and cardiac rehabilitation specialists work together to provide nationally-recognized cardiac care (PDF) for our patients.

We also take pride with our alliance with the Cleveland Clinic Heart, Vascular and Thoracic Institute. This unique alliance builds upon our rich history of excellence in heart care by offering patients in the region the highest level of cardiac and vascular care in the country. Patients will benefit from having access to the best practices that have helped Cleveland Clinic's heart program achieve the No. 1 heart care ranking in U.S. News & World Report every year since 1995.

In addition, St. Luke's Hospital's Heart & Vascular Institute has earned the top three-star rating from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) for its patient care and outcomes in isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedures. The three out of three-star rating, which denotes the highest category of quality, places St. Luke's Hospital among the elite for heart bypass surgery in the United States and Canada.
