Frequent electives of the hospital staff in well-known centers abroad and extensive cooperation with important persons of cardiovascular medicine from all over the world are evidence of such standing. The Institute is taking part in many scientific projects and multi-center clinical trials concerning the use of new therapeutical strategies. This is why the outstanding qualities of the institute are generally accepted. The investments that were spent on development of this modern centre, have resulted in excellent care and complete recovery of many patients that have then been able to return back to their families and work.
