About
The Cardiology Clinic staff provides medical care, cardiovascular risk stratification, and diagnostic services to patients referred to and followed by Clinic providers. A range of cardiovascular services are offered to include electrocardiography (ECGs or EKGs), ambulatory electrocardiography, echocardiography, cardioversion, and stress testing. In addition the staff oversee and direct referrals for nuclear medicine testing, heart catheterizations, and electrophysiology procedures. Providers include board certified cardiologists, cardiology focused nurse practitioners, and clinical pharmacists.
