National Institute of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery

WORLD-RENOWNED MEDICAL CENTERS

The Center:

Founded in 1966, the center’s scientists have dedicated themselves to in-depth investigations, assistance, and training. Generations have been trained and graduated at the hands of Cardiologists and Cardiovascular surgeons.

Mission:

To promote and develop scientific research and technological innovation in the field of cardiology and cardiovascular surgery, to address the fundamental problems of the health of the population, forming and training the scientific and professional personnel needed to provide medical services in correspondence with the tertiary care level, with high scientific, humanistic, revolutionary, and internationalist ethics, and advising the National Health System.

View:

Achieving specialized care integrated into a process of continuity of care with primary and secondary care, high quality (that meets the expectations of citizens) and offers all the science and technology available at all times (high complexity), adapting to changes in the environment through training and technology, and promoting the participation of all for our hospital to be an example of effectiveness, efficiency, and equity.
