Sarasota Memorial Hospital has earned 3-star ratings from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) for overall quality and clinical outcomes in all three adult cardiac surgery procedures the national organization measures including aortic valve replacement (AVR), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and AVR combined with CABG surgery. The 3-star ratings, which denote the highest category of quality, place SMH’s cardiac surgeons among the best of nearly 4,000 surgeons and providers in the United States and Canada participating in the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database. The star rankings are the latest in a string of awards and accolades that Sarasota Memorial Hospital has received the past few years. In January 2017, Sarasota Memorial was the only hospital in Florida that earned a 5-star rating from the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In 2016-2017, SMH also ranked among America’s 50 Best Heart Hospitals and the 100 Top Hospitals for overall care by Truven Health Analytics
