St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital is home to the Texas Heart Institute, founded in 1962 by Dr. Denton A. Cooley. The Texas Heart Institute at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital is consistently ranked among the top 10 cardiology and heart surgery centers in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.

With St. Luke's as its clinical partner, Texas Heart Institute has mended more hearts with and without surgery than any other facility. In January 2002, the opening of the new Denton A. Cooley Building gave the institutions a facility to expand their world-renowned leadership in education, research, and the treatment of heart disease.
