The Deutsches Herzzentrum der Charité (DHZC) is a specialist clinic for cardiovascular diseases. It was created at the beginning of 2023 through the merger of the cardiac medical facilities of the Deutsches Herzzentrum der Charité and Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. As a strategically and operationally independent unit, it is one of the leading heart centres in Europe.
The DHZC is located at Charité's three clinical campuses at Campus Virchow-Klinikum, Campus Charité Mitte and Campus Benjamin Franklin. It comprises a total of seven clinics and one institute. With 473 beds, around 20,000 inpatients per year and 2,100 employees, the DHZC is one of the largest heart centres in Europe.

In interdisciplinary and interprofessional, highly specialised teams, we treat patients of all ages with cardiovascular diseases of all degrees of severity - around the clock.
We operate the world's largest artificial heart programme in terms of case numbers and are one of the leading German centres for heart and lung transplantation.

In the catheter-based treatment of heart valve diseases, we combine our surgical and cardiological expertise in interdisciplinary heart teams.
We are committed to the continuous progress of cardiovascular medicine through intensive research and teaching.
We stand: For the best care for patients and their families, for excellent research and teaching, for new therapeutic procedures and innovative technologies, for sound education and training, but equally for satisfied employees and the talents of tomorrow. Together with our broad network of partners and supporters, we are committed to Berlin as a center of science and healthcare, but we also have an impact far beyond its borders.
