El Camino Hospital Heart & Vascular Institute

Our Heart and Vascular Institute is a destination for patients and physicians alike. Patients come for the incomparable care we offer. And world-class doctors come for the unique environment that enables them to innovate, collaborate and operate with only the patient's best interests in mind.

Every case is jointly reviewed by at least two, and often more, of our world-class heart specialists. For patients needing treatment, that may lead to a procedure in our state-of-the-art Cath Lab, like angioplasty or a stent. Or it may lead to the Operating Room for bypass or valve repair. It might even lead to a revolutionary hybrid procedure in which our experts perform a cath procedure first in order to enable a safer, less invasive operation later. Very few hospitals can claim to offer this type of life-saving collaboration. And even fewer can claim the successful results that we can.
