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

The Cardiac Institute is one of the most comprehensive cardiac centers in the nation, offering invasive and noninvasive, medical and surgical, adult and pediatric care. We perform more than 10,500 noninvasive procedures, more than 5,000 invasive procedures in the catheterization and electrophysiology labs and 700 open heart surgeries each year.

For many years, we have set the standard in diagnosing, treating and educating cardiac patients. The New York State Department of Health, Alliance for Quality Health Care and HealthGrades are among those that have honored Maimonides for its excellent cardiac services. Several years ago, the Federal government ranked us number one in the nation for 30-day survival rates based on the most reliable Medicare data.
 
The Cardiac Institute takes a team approach, partnering with referring doctors, cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, nurses and professional staff, and most importantly the patient and their family.
