Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute is one of the most distinguished cardiovascular programs in the country. Its legacy of innovation began more than 40 years ago when it opened as the nation’s first freestanding heart hospital. 

Since then, the nearly 200 board-certified specialists and cardiovascular experts recently completed the institute’s 1,100th heart transplant, earning global reputation for excellence in the treatment of heart disease.  

Thanks in part to your continued support, we deliver the most advanced heart care during more than 250,000 patient visits each year. We are ranked top 50 in the nation and No. 1 in Missouri for heart care, according to U.S. News & World Report. We are also the third hospital in the U.S. to achieve the Comprehensive Cardiac Center certification from The Joint Commission.
