Cardiac Services

Catholic Health in Western New York has long been a leader in cardiology, a branch of medicine that deals with the heart and its diseases. Annually, cardiologists at our Buffalo area hospitals treat more than 7,000 patients for cardiac illness.

The Heart Center at Mercy Hospital of Buffalo offers the highest number of minimally invasive cardiac surgery procedures in the region. And it’s the only cardiac program in Western New York using the revolutionary da Vinci® Robotic Surgical System.

Cardiac Care that Can't Be Beat

When you choose Catholic Health’s cardiology program, you choose the ultimate in peace of mind; we’ve consistently been rated the best in the region (Mercy Hospital Awards).

• The Heart Center at Mercy Hospital was recognized as a Blue Distinction Center for Cardiac Care® by BlueCross BlueShield.
• Mercy Hospital's heart surgery program was ranked among the top 14% in the nation by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) for the period covering July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011.
• Consumer Reports gave Catholic Health its highest rating for Coronary Bypass Surgery.
• The New York State Department of Health ranked our Interventional Cardiology and Coronary Bypass Surgery
  programs the best in the region, and in the top 10 in New York State.

If you need cardiac care, there’s no need to go outside of the area for the most advanced procedures. Big things are happening just a short distance from home.
