Oslo is home to Norway's premier cardiology centers, led by Oslo Universitetssykehus (OUS) across its Rikshospitalet, Ullevaal, and Aker campuses. OUS is the national cardiology reference center for complex heart surgery and interventional cardiology. Private cardiologists are concentrated around Majorstuen (Colosseum, Volvat) and Aker Brygge. Most patients are referred by their fastlege, but Aleris Hjertesenter and Spesialistsenteret accept direct bookings.
