Boston Medical Center is an extraordinary community of health care providers devoted to the proposition that every person, regardless of his or her social or economic circumstances, deserves the best health care.
From diagnosis to treatment and recovery, the Cardiovascular Center at Boston Medical Center provides a continuum of progressive care through its distinguished, multidisciplinary team of healthcare providers.
The CVC is large enough to offer clinical excellence but small enough for team members to get to know each patient and family. CVC attending physicians, physician assistants and dedicated CVC nurse practitioners take a multidisciplinary, collaborative approach to managing patient care.
The CVC takes a comprehensive approach, providing patients with expert medical management and a full range of cardiac and vascular therapies, procedures and operations. Our commitment to collaborative care goes beyond the walls of Boston Medical Center.
The Cardiovascular Center is dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in patient care, teaching, and research. We are committed to the patients we serve in our community and in the region through service, quality and innovation.
