We offer world-class congenital heart care for even the most complex conditions—from before birth through adulthood. Our physicians and surgeons are world leaders at the forefront of heart care breakthroughs. They pioneer new heart procedures that aren’t available elsewhere. This allows us to take on conditions that other hospitals are unable to treat. 

Changing the Outcome for Children and Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

If you or your child faces the frightening challenge of congenital heart disease, nothing but the best, most knowledgeable care will do. That’s why Cincinnati Children’s and Kentucky Children’s Hospital have partnered to create the Joint Pediatric and Congenital Heart Programranked one of the nation’s leading pediatric heart programs for more than 15 years by U.S. News & World Report.

Through this collaboration, world-class heart surgeons from Cincinnati Children’s work closely with cardiology specialists at Kentucky Children’s Hospital to deliver comprehensive care from before birth through adulthood.

Our heart surgery survival rates rank among the best, even for the most complex cases, and our patients often experience shorter hospital stays—helping families return to daily life sooner.

With more than 25 locations across Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana, and collaborations with other hospitals across the region, we bring top-ranked heart care closer to home. Together we can change the outcome.
