Heart & Vascular
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., accounting for
more than 600,000 deaths each year. Our goal at Baton Rouge General’s
Heart Center is to reduce that number by saving and improving the lives
of as many heart patients as possible. With our recent multi-million dollar
expansion of heart and vascular services, and a growing community of heart
specialists, Baton Rouge General brings together comprehensive heart and
vascular services under one roof.
