St. Luke's Heart Program Recognized Nationally

Becker's Hospital Review has included St. Luke's in its list of "100 Hospitals With Great Heart Programs."

The elite list, which was published December 13, selected hospital heart programs for inclusion based on their quality care, clinical awards, and research contributions to cardiovascular care.

St. Luke's Hospital was one of just three Minnesota hospitals to be featured in the list. The other two were Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester.

"Consistently, all of our providers are committed to deliver the most state-of-the-art care that we can provide to our patients," said St. Luke's cardiologist Dr. Scott Mikesell. "Not only are we always striving to be the best at what we do, but we are always striving to expand our capabilities and add services to our cardiac program."

Becker's Hospital Review is an influential publication aimed at high-level hospital leaders. It features business updates, legal news, and analysis focused on hospitals and health systems.
