“Heart health and world-class heart care should never depend on a person’s zip code.”
- A.Keller
HeartSense is committed to heart health for ALL. Partnering with trusted community channels — churches, local centers, and partner universities, medical schools, and colleges — HeartSense:
HeartSense was founded by V. Antoine Keller, MD, FACC, FACS — a nationally recognized cardiothoracic surgeon, and Professor and Chief of the Division of Cardiac Surgery at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. Dr. Keller founded HeartSense on a single conviction: that heart health and world-class heart care should never depend on a person’s zip code. A ceaseless pursuit of surgical excellence in service to every heart.


HeartSense allies with a variety of programs, institutions and initiatives to reach more people in need of care — from the Association of Black Cardiologists' work in cardiology deserts to the American College of Cardiology's health equity initiatives — HeartSense is present.
Below is a full list of partners and allies.
