The Texas Heart Institute Center for Cardiovascular Care

When legendary heart surgeon Dr. Denton A. Cooley established The Texas Heart Institute more than 60 years ago, his mission statement for the non-profit at Texas Medical Center was simultaneously simple and bold: namely, to reduce the devastating toll of cardiovascular disease through innovative programs in research, education, and improved patient care. The Texas Heart Institute is now breathing new life into Dr. Cooley’s original vision as the Institution has set into motion its clinical practice, which specializes in cardiovascular care with the singular mission to provide the highest-quality medical care in a sophisticated and welcoming patient-oriented atmosphere.

The Texas Heart Institute Center for Cardiovascular Care serves as a home base for outstanding cardiologists and cardiac surgeons who are also leaders in the subspecialty fields of Cardiac Imaging, Interventional Cardiology, Peripheral Vascular Disease, and Electrophysiology. The Texas Heart Center for Cardiovascular Care embodies the totality of The Texas Heart Institute as a fully integrated clinical cardiology practice encompassing the areas of education, research, and direct patient care.

The Texas Heart Institute Center for Cardiovascular Care’s physicians are members of The Texas Heart Institute Academic Professional Staff and they are eager to blaze a new trail and practice top-tier cardiovascular medicine as part of this clinical group,” emphasized Dr. Emerson Perin, The Texas Heart Institute’s Medical Director. He added, “The founding physicians at our center have upheld the same standards of excellence set forth by Dr. Cooley, spanning decades of collective experience in the practice of cardiovascular medicine and clinical investigation. In the spirit of the Cooley legacy, we are joining together as a body of clinicians, surgeons, and scientists with a unified ethos to take Dr. Cooley’s core mission far into the 21st century.”
