Texas Heart Institute at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital's Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Program helps people who have experienced a cardiac event or heart disease recover faster and return to full and productive lives. The goals of our program are to improve your physical fitness, increase your understanding of heart disease, and provide support for your lifestyle changes.

We provide all patients with a multidisciplinary team of a physician, nurses, exercise physiologists, a dietitian, and a stress counselor to help you achieve your heart-health goals.
