“Our dedicated team of physicians, nurses and support staff consistently demonstrate their commitment to our mission by doing everything it takes to enhance the care of our community,” said Dr. Kereiakes. “We continue to be the regional leader in cardiac surgery and a destination for patients across the country. Every patient that undergoes heart surgery at The Christ Hospital knows they will receive worldclass care each and every day as close to home as possible. It is a well-deserved honor for our cardiac surgical program to be recognized for their exceptional patient outcomes.”
