The gold standard of treatment at Hazel McCallion Centre for Heart Health
Patients suffering a heart attack involving blocked arteries of the heart need complex intervention offered at Trillium’s Cath Labs, the only such facility between Toronto’s University Avenue and Hamilton. As the regional advanced cardiac care centre, the Hazel McCallion Centre for Heart Health must keep pace with increasing demand and technological advances. Your support, through Gala 2009, will help upgrade our equipment to save or improve the lives of more patients from across the western GTA.
