Heart and vascular care for long‑term heart health

Heart and vascular care helps diagnose and treat conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. Care teams focus on early detection, lifestyle‑based and minimally invasive treatments first, and advanced procedures when necessary. Coordinated expertise supports recovery, ongoing heart health, and a better quality of life.

Heart Rhythm Experts in the Front Range

Intermountain Health provides a wide-ranging electrophysiology program to treat all forms of heart rhythm disorders for individuals living with heart conditions throughout the Denver Metro Area including Denver, Wheat Ridge, Lafayette and Brighton.

We have expanded our program to provide expertise and advanced services in Brighton, including a new cath lab, streamlined clinic access, and state-of-the-art procedures such as cryoablation.

From complex procedures, to routine and non-interventional care, our hospital and clinics are equipped to diagnose, treat and manage conditions such as atrial fibrillation (Afib), irregular heart rate, implanted pacemakers and defibrillators, or any undiagnosed heart symptoms like chest pain, trouble breathing and dizziness.

Award-winning care

We’re an accredited Chest Pain Center, meaning we meet the highest standards for effective and efficient evaluation and treatment for heart care. This designation is given by the American College of Cardiology (ACC), an international not-for-profit organization that focuses on transforming cardiovascular care.

Additionally, our hospital has achieved NCDR Chest Pain - MI Registry Platinum Performance Achievement Award from American College of Cardiology, and ranked as High Performing in Heart Failure care from US News and World Report.
