The Southeast’s first all-digital cardiovascular specialty facility, the Florida Hospital Pepin Heart Institute in Tampa, Florida, opened its doors on April 3, 2006. This freestanding, three-story facility is filled with advancements in technology, techniques and revolutionary patient-centered care and is raising expectations for the diagnosis, treatment and study of cardiovascular disease.

Most importantly, our heart center is also filled with a team of physicians, nurses, technicians and staff who have worked together for more than 20 years to create one of the most successful heart programs in the Tampa Bay area. 

Our physicians and clinical specialists have built a comprehensive cardiovascular program with the experience of providing over 76,000 angioplasty procedures and over 11,000 open heart surgeries. 

We opened the area's first accredited Chest Pain Emergency Room, which means that we provide a gold standard of care in acute cardiovascular medicine by meeting and exceeding standards set by the Society of Chest Pain Centers.

Florida Hospital Pepin Heart Institute is the first in Tampa and Hillsborough County to perform Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). This new, minimally invasive valve procedure is performed in the Cath Lab at Florida Hospital Pepin Heart Institute and is performed on a beating heart and does not require cardio-pulmonary bypass or opening the chest like traditional valve surgery.
