When an examination revealed Adolph Blue had five blocked arteries to his heart, surgery wasn't
an option. It was a necessity.
'They were all ready for me at another hospital," he says. "But after I looked at FirstHealth, I just
couldn't justify going anywhere else." ^
And if you need heart surgery, chances are you won't be able to justify I
going anywhere else, either.
Consider this: Our surgeons, trained at some of the most prestigious institutions in the I
nation, have performed over 3,000 open-heart surgeries.
use your head, you won't
else work on your heart.
And this: In the most recent rankings, we were named one of the 100 Top
Hospitals in America for heart care. The main criteria for achieving this distinguished
designation: Positive outcomes.
And this: HealthGrades, an independent organization that rates the performance
of medical facilities across the nation, recently awarded our coronary bypass surgery
services five stars, their highest ranking.
You see, the facts are, our physicians are second to none. Our technology is second to none. And our level of
care and our facilities are second to none.
Plus, when your heart surgery is over, we're still here for you for follow-up care. And to supervise your cardiac
rehab program at a FirstHealth Family Care Center near you.
So if you've been told you need heart surgery, we invite you to compare. Look at what we offer. Look at
what other places offer. Because when you do that, we're confident you'll do the same thing Adolph Blue did: ^.
Make FirstHealth your first choice for heart surgery.
