Memorial Hermann Heart and Vascular Institute

As part of an overall campus expansion and update, a new 9-story patient care tower was designed to integrate with the existing 1-story 1970’s vintage hospital and a 1980’s 4-story addition. The Heart and Vascular Institute occupies 93,486 square-feet on three floors of the new 300,000 square-foot tower. Floor seven and half of floor eight have 65 private beds, with the remainder of the eighth floor containing cardiac non-invasive diagnostic capabilities, including nuclear camera, ultra-fast CT, echo cardiology, holter monitoring and trans-telephonic assistance. The ninth floor has five interventional catheterization labs with the capability to expand to eight and the associated recovery services.
