With all new, expanded, state-of-the art facilities and the largest medical staff in the region, the Heart & Vascular Institute offers comprehensive heart and vascular care centered on the unique needs of each patient and family.

Our expert heart and vascular specialists work together to ensure that patients receive integrated and high-quality care — all in one streamlined location.

The Heart and Vascular Center has brought new hope to those who thought they had to leave family and friends behind and go to a larger city or teaching facility to receive world class care. More and more patients are realizing that the same level of world class cardiac care is available to them locally – at Lima Memorial.


Our services include: 

  • Interventional cardiology;
  • Cardiothoracic (open heart) surgery;
  • Heart and vascular screenings including EKG and stress testing;
  • Cardiovascular disease risk assessment and reduction;
  • Cardiac imaging (PET, MRI, CT); and
  • Inpatient and outpatient cardiac rehabilitation.

We also provide general cardiology and specialized clinics devoted to congestive heart failure, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) and pacemaker management, smoking cessation, and prevention.

The Heart & Vascular Institute surpasses the national and state averages for the national quality guidelines that all heart and vascular programs are measured by. It is supported by our fully accredited Chest Pain Center, Level Two Trauma Center and Emergency Center.

In addition, our patients benefit from the high number of procedures done by our specialists - Lima Memorial performs more open heart surgeries and more cardiac caths than any other hospital in the region.
