Dr. Wilbert Keon dreamed of a Heart Institute that would provide the highest standard of cardiac care to the Ottawa community and beyond. His vision and passion helped to create the Institute we have today, that has flourished into Canada’s leading and most distinguished cardiac health centres. It is recognized for the unparalleled care it provides, and its globally respected research that brings science from bench to bedside. 

​

It is the country’s main influencer when it comes to preventing heart disease. Last year, the Institute had 241,000 patient visits, almost 70,000 diagnostic tests, over 12,000 non-surgical interventions, more than 2,000 procedures and open-heart surgeries. Patients arrived from as far away as Nunavut, Newfoundland & Labrador.

​

Thanks to community support, the Institute continues to strive for excellence in care and research, always putting patients first.

Participants tee off at the stunning Ottawa Hunt & Golf Club and will enjoy a day of laughter and fun. You can also look forward to the opportunity for business networking, great prizes, a “can’t miss” live and silent auction, delicious food and beverage offerings, and a very special golfers’ gift for all participants. The best part of all is that this entire event is in support of prevention, innovative patient care, education and ground-breaking research at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute.
