The NYU Cardiac & Vascular Institute takes a personalized, holistic team approach to the care of patients with cardiac and vascular diseases. We treat the whole person, not just the disease.

What does this mean for you, the patient? It means doctors who listen. Nurses who care. Support staff to make sure all of your needs - not just the physical ones - are met. And behind the scenes, our basic science researchers are working every day to get to the bottom of what causes cardiovascular diseases and disorders, knowledge that will give us clues about how to manage and prevent these illnesses.

Moreover, we strive to take minimally invasive diagnostic and treatment approaches whenever possible, helping our patients receive the best care available while maintaining an optimal quality of life. The result: less pain, a quicker recovery, and a more rapid return to your normal activities.

We have also built the Jean & David Blechman Cardiac & Vascular Center to centralize as many cardiovascular services as possible, delivering a "one-stop- shopping" approach to make your visits as efficient and comfortable as possible. Located on the 13th floor of the Schwartz Health Care Center (HCC) building of NYU Medical Center, the Blechman Center is the gateway to all the services the NYU Cardiac & Vascular Institute has to offer.
