Park Nicollet Heart and Vascular Center

St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA

Park Nicollet’s new Heart and Vascular Center is the new front door to Methodist Hospital. The building was designed through a highly collaborative process and its design also encourages collaboration between physicians and clinical staff, benefiting patients through better teaming in diagnosis and treatment planning.

The facility is adjacent to an environmentally protected wetland. Views to the wetlands and motifs drawn from nature served as inspiration for the design, helping connect patients and families with the natural world and its beneficial effect on patient outcomes.

We receive many compliments from employees, patients and the community about how calming and beautiful the facility is. Now we are able to provide superior care in a patient-centered environment.
