It is an incredibly exciting time for the field of medicine and the practice of cardiology. While we are faced with challenges in managing more and more complex patients, we are also pushing to improve the quality and value of care for patients.

The new clinical affiliation between Kent Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital will align all of our combined cardiology resources to achieve these goals and to create a regional center of excellence in cardiology.

I am especially gratified to announce the formation of our new practice, Brigham and Women's Cardiovascular Associates at Kent Hospital, which will provide a full range of cardiology services with seamless connectivity to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

We will provide this care in a compassionate and thoughtful manner that is patient- and family-focused. To help us achieve this level of care, we have assembled an excellent team of specialized cardiovascular nurses and technical support staff.

We look forward to serving as your community cardiology resource.

Thank you,

Chester Hedgepeth, MD
Executive Chief of Cardiology, Kent Hospital
