Our Approach to Cardiology
Our experienced cardiologists diagnose, treat, and manage diseases of the heart and circulatory system. Your primary care physician can refer you to be treated by a cardiologist based on signs and symptoms you may be experiencing.
If you have any of the following symptoms or issues, you may be at risk for heart disease and may need evaluation by a cardiologist:
- High blood pressure
- Family history of heart problems
- Diabetes
- High total cholesterol
- Former or current smoker
A cardiologist will do an exam and evaluate your condition, and may want you to have additional tests or procedures if they are indicated. A cardiologist can advise you about managing or preventing heart disease.
Interventional Cardiology
Patients who need to have additional testing or a procedure may see an interventional cardiologist. An interventional cardiologist has advanced training to perform procedures or use advanced imaging to diagnose and treat heart and vascular disease.
