Our cardiologists, aka heart doctors, help prevent heart disease through checkups and, if indicated, screening tests (e.g. bloodwork and electrocardiograms). They treat symptoms of heart conditions or heart diseases with medications and other modalities. These diseases can include:
Hypertension (high blood pressure) and high cholesterol.
Heart disease (or coronary artery disease), when blood vessels that bring nutrients to your heart are blocked.
Heart failure, when your heart can’t pump blood properly.
Abnormal heart rhythm diseases, when your heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly.
Heart valve problems, when your heart valves do not open or close properly.
