Kanbar Cardiac Care Center 

The Kanbar Cardiac Care Center at California Pacific Medical Center offers advanced technology and equipment to diagnose heart disease, treat people with irregular heartbeats and open blocked vessels or arteries. Our nationally-recognized physicians and surgeons are committed to providing excellent personalized care in contemporary, welcoming facilities.

Features of the Kanbar Center

The Kanbar Cardiac Care Center features two cardiac catheterization laboratories, used to treat patients with blocked vessels or arteries and to help diagnose the causes of heart failure. The electrophysiology laboratory is used for treating patients with irregular heartbeats through cardiac resynchronization therapy and implantable cardiac defibrillators.

Let’s see if we can do some good before we leave this planet. And that’s a perfectly sensible way to behave in this world, because you can’t take it with you.

About the Kanbar Center

Over the years, Maurice Kanbar has pledged more than $10 million to the Kanbar Cardiac Care Center. Kanbar has a very personal reason for giving so generously.

“Both my parents died of heart failure,” Kanbar says. “So to me, if we can make some progress in solving the problem of heart failure, or if we can find ways of reducing the chances of it, I’d be very happy.”

Kanbar never rested on his laurels as an accomplished inventor and entrepreneur, but harnessed his success to build a philanthropic legacy of compassion and generosity that will live on in our community. 

CPMC is deeply grateful for Maurice’s partnership at the Kanbar Cardiac Care Center and for fostering a spirit of innovation and creativity that will benefit patients and families for generations to come.
