US News & World Report - Heart & Vascular Institute

The Henry Ford Heart & Vascular Institute is one of the nation’s top centers for heart and vascular disease. 

Our volumes are among the highest in the Midwest, giving us the experience to set protocols that become national standards. In fact, we are often rst to test or develop new heart disease treatments.

Our experts continue to develop new routes to the heart to replace heart valves when traditional routes are unavailable – and recently became the only team in the world performing transcaval TAVR by creating a new route to the heart to implant an artificial heart valve. We were also the first in the state to implant the only available subcutaneous de brillator.

It’s no wonder Henry Ford experts are innovating tomorrow’s health today in heart failure, transplantation, vascular disease, valve replacement, heart attack care, rhythm disorders, and hypertension and vascular research.
