Division of Cardiovascular Medicine
Welcome
The Cardiovascular Division is one of the largest academic and clinical units within the Department of Medicine. The division provides clinical services to more than 250,000 patients annually through Stanford University Medical Center and the Palo Alto Veterans Affairs Health Care System. We deliver compassionate and cutting-edge preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic services to patients in the coronary care unit, inpatient cardiology service, cardiovascular clinic, cardiac catherization and interventional laboratories, echocardiography laboratory, electrophysiology laboratory, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) service. As a result, cardiac services at Stanford is consistently ranked among the top ten in the the nation and number one in the West by U.S. News and World Report.
Members of the Cardiovascular Division are actively engaged in research activities in the basic, clinical, and translational sciences. A number of clinical trials are currently underway in such areas as interventional cardiology, heart failure, and clinical electrophysiology. In 2000, Stanford was awarded a $24 million grant from the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation to establish the Reynolds Cardiovascular Clinical Research Center at Stanford. The center is helping to enhance patient care by incorporating modern genetic approaches to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of atherosclerotic heart disease.
We invite you to learn more about our clinical services, research activities, and training programs throughout the following pages.
