The Problem and the Solution: Because Heart Attacks Cannot Wait

The average heart attack patient isn’t treated by a cardiologist for TWO HOURS. Tragically, that’s too long. Most hospitals shoot for 90 minutes. By DMC’s standards, that’s still too long.

The solution is both elegantly simple and clinically historic. DMC’s Cardio Team One has committed unprecedented effort and resources to ensure you won’t wait in an emergency. When a heart attack hits, time is muscle. Lost minutes mean lost heart muscle, which means longer odds of survival and longer recovery time for those who do.

Cardio Team One will treat its patients in half the national average standard time. You will be in recovery by the time doctors at other hospitals are merely starting to scrub in.
