Inaugurated in 2008, the Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute in Edmonton is the first heart institute to be built in Canada in 40 years. Operating under the auspices of the University of Alberta and Alberta Health Services, the Institute provides state of the art cardiac care in one of the most environmentally advanced medical facilities in the country. Through its contributions to the University Hospital Foundation, Power Corporation has been a proud supporter of the institute since its inception. We’re glad to have played our part in making the Institute a reality to the benefit of so many Canadians.
This leading-edge hospital provides a variety of outpatient clinics and services, diagnostic and non-surgical treatment areas, complex cardiovascular surgery units and inpatient care. It receives adult and pediatric patients from Alberta and western and northern Canada.
The Institute is home to the innovative Alberta Cardiovascular and Stroke Research Centre (ABACUS) which brings scientists and clinicians together in a translational research centre with a focus on vascular biology, imaging and intervention, and critical trials and outcomes.
Don Mazankowski and his fellow founders of the Institute built a remarkable medical facility that will stand the test of time as one of the best in the world.
