Our cardiovascular services
Diagnostic heart imaging and screenings
Cardiac imaging is central to diagnosing and managing heart disease. We use advanced heart imaging technologies, such as nuclear imaging, echocardiograms and computerized tomography (CT) scans, to visualize and track the performance of the heart muscle to identify any abnormalities.
If further exploration is needed, we have an on-site catheterization laboratory (cath lab) for minimally invasive diagnostic and treatment procedures.
Cardiovascular rehabilitation
We have a dedicated cardiac rehabilitation program to help individuals with cardiovascular disease on their road to recovery. Our program works to help you regain strength and mobility. We also provide education on lifestyle changes and nutritional choices that can help reduce your risk for future heart disease.
Interventional and structural cardiology
Our cardiovascular team offers advanced interventional cardiology procedures to diagnose and treat heart disease using minimally invasive techniques. To support long-term heart function, some of the procedures and treatments we offer include:
- Balloon angioplasty
- Cardiac rehabilitation
- Cardiac surgery
- Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
- Stent placement for coronary artery obstructions
- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)
- Valve surgery
- Vascular surgery
Electrophysiology (EP) and arrhythmia care
Our EP specialists use advanced diagnostic techniques to treat abnormal heart rhythms, including atrial fibrillation (Afib). We offer advanced, minimally invasive treatment options, such as cardiac ablation, pacemaker placement and ongoing device monitoring.
Cardiovascular, endovascular and thoracic surgery
Our heart and vascular surgical care include treatment for individuals with valve disease, heart arrhythmias, vascular disease, blocked arteries and aortic aneurysms.
You have access to surgeons who perform advanced cardiac procedures and surgeries, if needed. In addition to traditional surgical methods, we also use minimally invasive surgical techniques when possible.
Controlling risk factors for heart disease
Talk to your doctor about what is right for you, but, in general, there are steps you can take to help reduce your risk of heart disease, such as:
- Avoid eating foods high in trans fatty-acids (also known as "trans fats"), saturated fat, sodium, cholesterol and sugar
- Exercise regularly
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Quit smoking
- Reduce stress
- Stay active in cardiac rehabilitation if you have already had a stroke, heart attack or heart surgery
Heart attack treatments and care
Heart attacks have “beginnings,” and these occur in more than 50 percent of individuals. Symptoms can begin about two weeks prior to a major event. These symptoms may come and go until finally becoming constant and severe. Ask your doctor about early heart attack care (EHAC).
Dedicated heart care units
For individuals with cardiovascular conditions, our Heart and Vascular Institute includes four dedicated units, including:
- Cardiovascular intensive care unit (CVICU) — Following heart surgery, individuals are moved to the CVICU, where they will receive critical care and advanced monitoring.
- Cardiovascular step-down unit (CVSD) — This unit provides electrocardiogram (EKG) and heart rhythm monitoring for those who are no longer in need of intensive care.
