Who We Are
Sound Heart is a collaboration between Overlake and Evergreen hospitals to create a comprehensive heart treatment program on the Eastside. It is a unique culture of synergy and teamwork among outstanding cardiac physicians and caregivers, specialists and primary care doctors.
Sound Heart pulls together the best of what both hospitals have to offer to bring heart patients and their families a new and better option - one that's conveniently located closer to home.
Sound Heart also makes good economic sense. It is a smarter use of slender health care dollars to work together and maximize resources. Sound Heart isn't about duplicating - it is about complementing. Overlake excels at complicated cardiac procedures and open-heart surgery. Evergreen leads the region in education and innovative patient rehabilitation. Now, Eastsiders can have the best of both worlds.
Cardiac care often requires a large number of follow-up hospital, clinic and doctor office visits. By providing care close to home, Sound Heart makes it possible to avoid crossing Lake Washington and dealing with the traffic gridlock in our region. It can also make a big difference when there is an emergency, and every second counts.
Receiving care on the Eastside from Sound Heart at Overlake or Evergreen, is a completely different experience:
- Superior patient results
- State-of-the-art procedures and equipment
- Caring, expert nursing and professional technical staff
- Proactive lifestyle and wellness services
- Beautiful, clean and safe surroundings - close to home
