ECMC—Your Best Choice for Cardiac Care

With emergency cardiac care that’s nearly 20 minutes faster than the AHA national guidelines and the best open-heart surgery survival rates in Buffalo (according to a 2006 New York State Department of Health report), ECMC is a leader in cardiac care. We opened the area’s first comprehensive cardiac care unit open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and today we offer leading services for nearly every type of heart care, including:

  • Angiograms and angioplasties
  • Pacemakers and defibrillators
  • Heart-valve replacement
  • Bypass surgery

So why would you go anywhere else? Remember, it’s your heart and your life. You should be at the hospital with high-quality cardiac care. Ask your cardiologist to refer you to ECMC.
