In 1976, Saint Agnes performed its first open heart surgery—bringing advanced cardiovascular care closer to home for patients and families throughout the Central Valley. Fifty years later, that same commitment continues through every procedure, every innovation and every life entrusted to our care.
Today, Saint Agnes offers comprehensive heart and vascular services supported by experienced specialists, advanced technology and nationally recognized quality. From minimally invasive procedures and structural heart care to robotic-assisted surgery and life-saving emergency treatment, we're committed to ensuring patients can access expert cardiac care close to home.
While medicine has evolved over the last five decades, our mission remains the same: caring for the whole person—body, mind and spirit.
The lives at the heart of our story
For Charles ("Charlie"), what began as a routine angiogram quickly became a life-changing journey. Following the procedure, Charlie learned he needed open heart surgery. During his recovery, colleagues at Saint Agnes helped transform what was meant to be their wedding weekend into an unforgettable celebration inside the hospital chapel, surrounding Charlie and his wife, JoAnn, with compassion during one of life's most meaningful moments.
Stories like Charlie's remind us that cardiac care is about more than procedures and technology. It's about being there for patients and families through every challenge, every milestone and every step forward.
