Kansas City is poised to become a national leader in addressing the nation’s maternal health crisis, and there’s a way for you to help or to be treated if you’re pregnant and have a heart condition.

A local man with heart failure who was told numerous times he only had months to live gets a second chance at life after treatment at Saint Luke's.

Dr. Adnan Chhatriwalla, interventional cardiologist at Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute, talks about symptoms of heart valve disease, treatment, and keys to long-term heart health.

One patient's experience more than a decade ago was a pivotal moment for both Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute and Saint Luke's Hospital Maternal-Fetal Medicine Program.

“U.S. News & World Report” has named Saint Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City, Saint Luke’s East Hospital, and Saint Luke’s North Hospital–Barry Road as 2025 High Performing hospitals for Maternity Care.

Three Saint Luke’s hospitals earn highest award for U.S. News’ Best Hospitals for Maternity Care.

At 35 weeks pregnant, Sara went into labor—just three days before she and her fiance were supposed to get married. A goal they had before the baby arrived, but their son had other plans.

Keely Bechtel hoped history would repeat itself. She had her first baby at Saint Luke’s South Hospital and planned to do the same with her second. But her obstetrician moved to another area hospital.

Beth O’Connor hoped the sharp, searing pain that started in her chest and shot down to her belly was labor pangs and not her aortic artery coming apart.
