The NSMC Heart Center is a collaborative effort between North Shore Medical Center and Massachusetts General Hospital. Our surgeons hold joint appointments at Massachusetts General Hospital and NSMC.    

NSMC named among top 100 hospitals for cardiovascular care

We are the only comprehensive heart center on the North Shore with fully integrated cardiac services including angioplasty (percutaneous coronary intervention) and advanced cardiac surgery. Our wide range of clinical services also includes electrophysiology, heart failure program, cardiac rehabilitation, cardiovascular risk reduction and support groups.

We provide general cardiology evaluation, EKG, echocardiogram, nuclear cardiology, Holter monitoring, stress testing and cardiac ultrasound at the Mass General/North Shore Center for Outpatient Care.

We were among the first in Massachusetts to provide cardiac surgery patients with a one-stay model of care, whereby all post-operative care and rehabilitation is provided by the same care team, in the same room -- no moving from one unit to another or adjusting to new faces during the course of a stay.
