SCL Health St. Mary’s new Heart & Vascular Institute brings the most advanced cardiac and vascular care
available - right to the heart of Western Colorado. This means patients can stay closer to their doctors,
homes, jobs, and support networks that advance outcomes and improve lives.
The new Heart & Vascular Institute provides significantly expanded access to care options never before
available in our region. Advanced minimally invasive procedures such as TAVR/TAVI heart valve implants
have the potential to reduce patient discomfort, shorten recovery time, and offer an alternative procedure
when open surgery might present challenges.
