Cincinnati Children’s Heart Institute is one of the largest pediatric cardiology programs in the nation and boasts especially favorable outcomes for even the most difficult and complex procedures. The institute implements a bench-to-bedside approach, which allows it to bring research results into mainstream treatment plans for its patients before they become available elsewhere. From July of 2021 to June of 2022 alone, the institute saw over 27,000 outpatient visits and performed 559 cardiothoracic surgeries. Cincinnati Children’s and Lexington, Ky.-based Kentucky Children’s Hospital Joint Pediatric and Congenital Heart Program is ranked among the top programs in the nation for cardiology and heart surgery by U.S. News & World Report in their 2022-23 list of Best Children’s Hospitals.
