The Cardiovascular Network of West Michigan (CVNWM), a joint venture between Trinity Health and University of Michigan Health-West, leverages the combined resources and capabilities of the two award-winning West Michigan health systems and University of Michigan Health Frankel Cardiovascular Center, one of the nation’s highest-rated centers for cardiology and heart surgery.
Officially formed on March 25, 2021, the CVNWM set its sights on launching a second open-heart surgery program for the Grand Rapids area. This vision became a reality in October 2022 as some of the nation's top heart surgeons gathered to perform open-heart procedures in a new state-of-the-art operating room at University of Michigan Health-West. The network has become the latest innovative partnership to expand regional cooperation in advanced medical services.
