And you can have the benefit of receiving immediate treatment after diagnosis. The Institute represents a new era in cardiovascular health.

New approaches to cardiovascular care are emerging...
New diagnostic tests can help cardiologists detect a heart complication before it becomes serious or life threatening. And less-invasive procedures like angioplasty and stent placement have created new possibilities for successful treatment. In fact, only 1% of patients ever need heart surgery.*

People are also discovering that they can play the greatest role in their heart health, especially at an earlier age. Day-to-day prevention techniques like exercise, a healthy diet, and maintaining a low-level of stress are widely known to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Silver Cross Hospital unifies these emerging attitudes to create a truly innovative heart care environment. By extending our commitment to care beyond our hospital walls, we foster healthy lifestyle habits that can make invasive treatment a less frequent option.

Welcome to a new era in cardiovascular health.
Silver Cross Hospital’s Brown Cardiovascular Institute brings the most comprehensive and advanced heart care to the Will County and the the southwest suburbs. If you would like more information about our cardiovascular services, please call (815) 300-7089.
