Welcome to the Louis & Peaches Owen Heart Hospital the first and only heart hospital in the region. Our program builds upon more than 25 years of pioneering heart care for east Texans and launches a new era in improved cardiac care and patient safety. This new approach to heart care incorporates the latest technologies and processes, while also including healing concepts and patient-centered features that involve the family along with medical staff to ensure the best possible outcomes.
