Mt Sinai Medical Center Heart Institute joins ORNOA

MTSinaiMedicalCtr
It has been our goal to offer international patients access to the BEST providers in South Florida. The Mount Sinai Heart Institute is Florida's leading heart center.
 
The data supports this view:
  • Best Heart Attack survival rate in Florida and the 9th best in the United States.
  • Best cardiac survival rate in Florida among hospitals that perform high volume of complex cases.
  • Mt. Sinai physicians perform more valve procedures than doctors at any other hospital in Florida.
  • Accredited Heart laboratory, cited for continuously providing high quality diagnostic care in testing heart disease.
  • Superior outcomes for minimally invasive procedures: lower complications, lower rates of infection, shorter intensive care stay, and shorter hospital stay.

ORNOA can assist patients with timely appointments to cardiac testing, physician consultations, procedures, surgery and second opinions.

OrthoLOGOWhat if there was an independent web site that could lead you to leading orthopedic surgeons specific to your condition? This is the premise of our latest project. To offer information on leading orthopedic surgeons who can best address Trauma, Occupational Work Injuries, Joint Replacements, Hand and Upper Body, Foot and Ankle, Spine, Hip, Knees, Arthritis and more. The web site will not offer a complete listing of all orthopedic surgeons, like many other directories. It will not exclusively promote any one medical center. It will offer an in-depth look at selective orthopedic surgeons who are patient focused, and who offer value and clinical excellence. Every physician covered will be a doctor we have personally worked with, and there will be plenty of patient testimonials and real case studies that highlight the quality of their work. 

 

Stay tuned for the "Go Live" date of
