Since its founding, North Memorial Health’s Heart & Vascular team has been a leader in cardiovascular care not just in Minnesota, but the entire country. With one of the fastest response times in the nation when it comes to treating a heart attack (our door-to-balloon time was 54 minutes, as compared to a national goal of 90 minutes), patients can rely on North when speed is crucial for optimal outcomes.

Beyond emergency care, this team of top-rated cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, and a full interdisciplinary team focuses on providing holistic healthcare to patients with heart disease – ensuring timely access to the highest quality services at every stage.

Support the life-saving work of our Heart & Vascular team with a donation to the North Memorial Health Foundation today.
