The Cardiology Department of The Heart and Vascular
Institute at Lima Memorial is committed to providing the
highest quality cardiovascular care and research.
The Division includes multiple units ranging from critical care
to outpatient procedures. Services include Cardiac Catheterization,
Angioplasty, Stent placement, Implantable Cardiac Defibrillators,
Echocardiography, Electrophysiology, Stress Testing and Cardiac
Rehabilitation.
Other services include general cardiology clinics and
specialized clinics devoted to congestive heart failure, ICD and
pacemaker management, smoking cessation, and preventive and

The Cardiology Department, in conjunction with the Emergency
Department, has led the efforts to become one of the first in the
nation to receive accreditation for Lima Memorial's Chest Pain
Center. This commitment of providing the ultimate care to those
suffering heart attacks within the community has resulted in the
ultimate reward - lives are being saved and the patients are going
home to their families.
