SRIHER was inaugurated in 1985, as the Sri Ramachandra Medical College and Research Centre. The founding of the Department of Cardiology dates back to 3rd November 1994 and was called the ‘Cardiac Care Centre’. The department focused on Cardiology, Cardiac Surgery and Cardiac Anesthesiology.
Our courses:
Alongside efforts for students, the department also emphasizes patient care. We combine academic insight and clinical expertise, giving us a unique approach. Thorough investigations lead to advanced therapeutic interventions, including transplant procedures.
Our team of experienced cardiologists and skilled nursing staff ensure high quality treatment and care. Our dedicated technical personnel, and intuitive administrative staff manage operational tasks. We do groundbreaking work in preventive, primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary care. From infants to the elderly, we aim to provide the best possible care to all patients.
