Cardiology

At Lutheran Medical Group, we've been taking care of hearts for more than 30 years. In fact, our founder, Robert E. Swint Sr., MD, was the first board-certified cardiologist in Fort Wayne.

We've assembled a team of expert healthcare professionals from around the world who provide patients the most comprehensive and innovative heart care available. Our physicians are not only leaders in treating patients with cardiovascular disease, they also participate in clinical trials that help spearhead new modalities to treat heart disease, and they emphasize prevention by teaching patients how to manage their heart conditions by making positive lifestyle changes.
