With the most experience in Central New York, we have what it takes to keep hearts healthy.
Your heart is what keeps you moving forward. It keeps us moving forward, too. We’ve pioneered groundbreaking cardiac procedures with robotics to consistently deliver unparalleled outcomes in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and more.
We perform more cardiac surgeries than anyone else in the area while consistently exceeding national quality benchmarks. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons recognizes us as one of the top 20 hospitals in the nation for cardiac surgery. Further, Healthgrades ranks us among the best hospitals in the U.S. for heart surgery.
MORE SURGERIES
MORE EXPERIENCE, MORE EXPERTISE.
We perform more than 400 heart valve replacements and more than 900 CABG and valve surgeries annually — more than any other hospital in the region.*

ROBOTIC-ASSISTED SURGERY
SHORTER RECOVERY, LESS SCARRING AND BETTER OVERALL HEALTH.
We offer robotic and minimally invasive valve and coronary-artery–bypass surgeries — And we’re the first and only hospital in Central New York to provide TAVR to higher-risk patients with aortic stenosis.
MITRAL VALVE REPAIR EXCELLENCE
1 OF ONLY 8 IN THE NATION.
We have received the Mitral Valve Repair Reference Center Award from the American Heart Association for our record of superior clinical outcomes in mitral valve repair. Valve repair is associated with improved survival and fewer long-term complications than valve replacement.
The first structural heart team in CNY.
When interventional, clinical and surgical experts work together to address multiple issues, it’s a more efficient and more effective treatment method. We instituted the first Structural Heart Program in Central New York — enabling us to treat the entire range of patient conditions to achieve better patient outcomes, lower costs and fewer readmissions.
Recognized for excellence in cardiology.
At St. Joseph’s Health, “A Higher Level of Care” is the guiding philosophy driving our continuous improvement in all areas of performance — from technology to safety, and from efficiency to clinical outcomes. Here are just a few measures of our success:
