Where Great Cardiology Care Gets Better
We are a network that empowers the nation’s leading cardiologists
to grow their practices and build their legacies.
The Perks of the Partnership
Our Mission
TX Heart Partners was founded to help doctors get back to doing what they love—patient care.
Our Objective
We fuel growth for our partner practices by building their brands and investing in their people—not seeking to change what’s already working!
Our Difference
Backed by Leon Healthcare Partners, we bring capital support through the lens of a family office, interested in long term relationships—not traditional, slash and cut private equity.
