Healthcare Provider Sponsors

HeadsUp on Heart Disease 2005 is led by three healthcare providers who are all leaders in their regions: St. Mary Medical Center in Langhorne, Pennsylvania, Lourdes Health System (The New Jersey Heart Institute at Lourdes) in southern New Jersey and Saint Joseph’s Hospital (part of the Saint Joseph’s Health System) in Atlanta, Georgia.
