Connected Care for Better Heart, Vascular and Lung Health

When it comes to your heart, arteries and lungs, everything is connected — and your care should be too. That means coordinated appointments, clearer answers and a care plan that works together from the start. At AtlantiCare’s Heart & Vascular Institute, cardiology, vascular and pulmonology specialists work side by side to make sure patients receive seamless care all in one place.

Many heart, vascular and lung conditions overlap, especially for people managing chronic or complex health issues. AtlantiCare’s integrated team approach brings these specialties together, allowing physicians to communicate in real time, align treatment plans and focus on what matters most to each patient. The result is care that feels simpler, more coordinated and more personal.

This team-based approach is backed by national recognition for quality and outcomes. AtlantiCare has earned multiple Healthgrades awards for cardiac care, coronary intervention and cardiac surgery — reflecting a consistent commitment to high standards, safety and outcomes patients can trust.

AtlantiCare also offers a critical distinction for the region: the only 24/7 cardiac intervention program, ensuring patients have immediate access to lifesaving care whenever it’s needed. Around-the-clock readiness means advanced cardiac procedures are available without delay — day or night — close to home.

Leading the Heart & Vascular Institute is Joseph V. Lombardi, MD, MBA, FACS, a nationally recognized vascular surgeon and AtlantiCare’s Chief Physician Executive. Dr. Lombardi brings deep clinical expertise and a clear focus on innovation, teamwork and patient-centered care. His leadership helps ensure that patients have access to advanced treatments, the latest techniques and a care experience built around experience and open communication.

Receiving advanced heart and vascular care close to home means less travel, greater convenience and the comfort of staying connected to your community. AtlantiCare is changing the belief that the most advanced care only exists in large cities or distant academic medical centers by offering nationally recognized expertise, around-the-clock care and advanced procedures right here.

The message is simple: you don’t have to navigate complex care alone. Exceptional heart, vascular and lung care is right here, when you need it most.
