Interventional Cardiology

Interventional cardiology focuses on diagnosing and treating heart and blood vessel conditions using advanced, minimally invasive techniques. Instead of open surgery, many procedures are performed through a small puncture into the blood vessel using needles and catheters. This approach allows for faster recovery, less discomfort, and excellent outcomes.

Our team uses advanced technology to treat a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, often in a single procedure, so you can return to daily life with minimal downtime.

Conditions We Treat

Interventional cardiology plays an important role in managing many common heart and vascular conditions. Learn more about each condition below:

• Aortic Aneurysms
• Aortic Stenosis
• Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)
• Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
• Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE)
• High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
• Heart Failure
• Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
• Mitral Regurgitation
• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
• Tricuspid Regurgitation
• Varicose Veins 

Advanced Treatments and Procedures

Our interventional cardiologists offer a full range of minimally invasive procedures tailored to your condition:

• Angioplasty and Stenting: Opens blocked arteries and restores normal blood flow
• Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR): Replaces a narrowed valve without open-heart surgery 
• Cardiac Catheterization: Diagnoses and treats heart conditions using a combination of X-Ray imaging (Fluoroscopy), pressure monitoring and ultrasound guidance
• Ablation Therapy: Treats irregular heart rhythms by targeting abnormal electrical pathways in the heart
• Thrombectomy (Clot Removal): Removes dangerous blood clots blocking arteries and veins to restore normal blood flow
• Peripheral Interventions: Improves circulation in the arteries and veins in legs and other affected areas
• Structural Heart Procedures: Procedures that repair heart defects such as holes within the walls that normally separate chambers in the heart (Atrial Septal Defects or Patent Foramen Ovale) or abnormal heart valves

Why Choose Interventional Cardiology

• Minimally invasive techniques with smaller procedure wounds
• Shorter recovery times compared to traditional surgery
• Lower risk of complications
• Advanced imaging and precision in technology
• Personalized care plans based on your needs

Our focus is to provide effective treatment while minimizing disruption to your life.

Connected Care for Better Outcomes

Interventional cardiology is part of a comprehensive approach to heart and vascular health. Patients may also benefit from:

• Electrophysiology services for heart rhythm conditions
• Noninvasive imaging and diagnostic testing for accurate preprocedure evaluation and planning
• Cardiac rehabilitation for post-procedure recovery and strength
• Preventive care and long-term risk management
