The much-awaited Vivian and Seymour Milstein Family Heart Center at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has many incredible features and assets.  As a driving force behind the project, Connie Milstein and her family helped to pave the way for this comprehensive inpatient and outpatient facility.

The new facility includes amazing specialists who bring expertise in coronary artery disease, electrophysiology and more to the center.  It has 20 new cardiac ICU beds, offers non-surgical alternatives, features a dedicated Diabetes and Heart Education Center and a Preventive Cardiology Program, and includes an environmentally friendly and award-winning design.  The building features recycled materials and is supposed to be 30% more energy efficient than a standard building.  The new facility has already received the 2009 Award of Merit in Health Care from New York Construction Magazine.
