Cardiovascular experts

Patient safety is at the forefront of everything we do. That's why our heart and vascular program is the most comprehensive and robust in the region. If a patient's condition worsens during a heart procedure, we don't transfer them to another hospital — we keep them here.

Our doctors, physician assistants, surgeons, nurses, technologists and specialists are some of the most experienced in Oregon. Bringing this expertise to the Mid-Willamette Valley offers not only better health outcomes, but also peace of mind.

Why choose Salem Health for your cardiovascular care?

Quicker recovery

Salem Health cardiologists use the radial method, which utilizes an artery in the wrist. This method is safer, increases patient comfort and decreases recovery time — patients can get up and move right away.

The more you do, the better you are. Our highly skilled team has successfully performed more than 1,700 open-heart surgeries in the last five years. You can be confident that you’ve come to the right place.
