When you visit St. Vincent's Hospital Staten Island for cardiac care,
you put your heart in the very best hands. Our physicians, nurses
and technicians have achieved reputations for excellence and they are dedicated to
respecting the dignity of each individual. We offer comprehensive
inpatient and outpatient services, from emergency treatment to sophisticated diagnostic procedures and risk
screenings. Most of the procedures are performed on-site at St. Vincent's Hospital
Staten Island. Cardiac surgery and some advanced interventional procedures
are performed through the Staten Island Heart
Institute.
 Getting Heart Healthy St. Vincent's Hospital Staten Island offers an
outstanding cardiac rehabilitation program for people who are at risk of or recovering
from heart disease. Our highly successful Cardiac Rehabilitation Center teaches
people how, by instituting important lifestyle changes, such as exercising,
reducing stress and following a heart healthy diet, they can live longer with a
better quality of life than they might otherwise have had. Staffed by a cardiologist
and specially trained cardiac nurses, this service focuses on the body's
response to exercise and the patient's cardiac education. We monitor patients
electronically and chart their progress. By the end of the program, patients
leave with a lifelong plan aimed at a healthy heart.
Cardiology Clinics We treat
patients with a full range of cardiac conditions and offer advanced
diagnostic and therapeutic services in our cardiology outpatient clinics, which are staffed
by attending cardiologists and cardiac fellows.
