2022 annual report

The UW Medicine Heart Institute is committed to serving a region that extends far beyond just the Puget Sound area.

We pride ourselves in taking exceptional care of the most complex patients and regularly evaluate patients who have been deemed too high risk for interventions or procedures elsewhere.

We're proud of our accomplishments in 2023, though look forward to boundaries we push in 2024.
