Heart failure happens when the heart muscle can’t pump well enough to deliver blood and oxygen to support the other organs in the body. Heart failure can be a scary diagnosis, but our experts at the UK Gill Heart & Vascular Institute work together with each patient to create a treatment plan individually tailored to that patient’s specific needs.

We offer the most complete array of heart failure care, from medication and lifestyle changes to advanced surgical procedures like LVAD placement and even heart transplant. And through clinical trials and studies, we are able to offer treatment options that are not available anywhere else in Kentucky.
