The Most Advanced Care in the Region for Treating Chest Pain and Heart Attacks

The Heart Hospital at St. Joseph's Hospital is the first in the region to earn Chest Pain Center Accreditation with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) from the Society of Cardiovascular Patient Care. This accreditation shows our commitment to getting the fastest and best treatment to chest pain and heart attack patients.

Robotic Surgery and Minimally Invasive Procedures

The da Vinci Robotic Surgical System allows cardiothoracic surgeons at The Heart Hospital to now remove cancerous tumors with smaller incisions. In addition, the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) procedure allows these specialized surgeons to also use minimally invasive techniques for aortic stenosis. These minimally invasive options significantly reduce pain and bleeding and increase the speed of recovery time.

Full diagnostic and therapeutic treatment options including medical cardiology, diagnostic and interventional cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, and robotic cardiothoracic surgery.

We support patients undergoing procedures to evaluate and treat cardiac and peripheral disease by offering ease-of-access front-door entry with an exclusive registration area, a dedicated family waiting area, impressive consultation rooms, non-invasive testing options and a dedicated outpatient unit for post-procedure care.

Nursing Excellence with International Recognition

St. Joseph’s/Candler has received our fifth international Magnet status, the highest level of recognition that can be accomplished for nursing excellence.
