The vision of Sanger Heart & Vascular Institute is to ensure that every patient is offered clinical expertise and an experience of care that is amongst the best in the nation. In its commitment to delivering world-class cardiovascular care for more than 50 years, Sanger Heart & Vascular Institute continues the legacy of founder Francis Robicsek, MD, PhD, a pioneer in cardiac surgery, through early adoption of the most advanced medical technology available in the world.

Sanger's new Kenilworth location--a state-of-the-art facility spanning 200,000 square feet adjacent to the main campus of Carolinas Medical Center--provides patients access to the most comprehensive care, ranging from general cardiology to the highest surgical complexity, including adult and pediatric heart transplant programs. With the expansion of Sanger Heart & Vascular Institute's footprint, patients will have unprecedented access to clinical care and patient programs recognized by industry experts to be among the best of the best, including a state-of-the-art cardiac rehabilitation suite, advanced imaging technologies and clinical research, leading surgical techniques, and a vast range of sub-specialty cardiovascular services.

The new facility and plans for its continued growth reflect Atrium Health's commitment to providing improved access to specialty heart care for patients across the Charlotte region.
