Every 34 seconds, heart disease claims another life in the United States — nearly 2,500 people every single day. But there is hope!
At the Midwest Institute for Heart at Silver Cross Hospital, a team of extraordinary experts is fighting back. These are the heroes dedicated to saving lives through cutting‑edge prevention programs, advanced diagnostics, award winning open‑heart surgery, and comprehensive aftercare — all in one convenient location.
Heart disease doesn’t stand a chance against this powerhouse team. And with your charitable support, Silver Cross can POW!, WHAM! and SMASH! heart disease right out of our community.
Join the fight. Be part of the victory.
