Are you a woman living with heart or vascular disease?

We can help.

WomenHeart Houston is a support group providing peer-to-peer patient support and education for women living with heart disease. This kind of support is crucial to a woman’s recovery and well being, and that of her family.

The national coalition, WomenHeart, has found that through its peer-led networks, women are better able to make well-informed decisions about their health and care based upon the educational programming and emotional support these networks provide. Join us at an upcoming WomenHeart Houston group meeting to learn more!

The Texas Heart Institute – a proud member of WomenHeart’s National Hospital Alliance program – has partnered with WomenHeart to support women cardiac patients by serving as the host site for the WomenHeart Houston chapter.

WomenHeart Houston is the first support group in the Texas Medical Center for women living with heart and vascular disease and meetings are free of charge and open to all, regardless of where treatment is received.

2023 Meetings are held on the third Wednesday of every month at 2:00 pm.

Location: The Texas Heart Institute, Denton A. Cooley Building, Gerald A. Maley conference room (Green Elevators, 5th floor, room C505)

Meet our Support Group Coordinators Kimberly Connell and Tannie Coward
