Cardiology

Upcoming Events

Our comprehensive cardiology program made up of the area's finest noninvasive and interventional cardiologists - treats more than 15,000 cardiology patients and performs more than 44,000 diagnostic procedures each year.

Capital Health cardiologists are specialists in diagnosing, treating, and preventing heart disease. By evaluating a patient's overall lifestyle, including factors such as hypertension, smoking, diabetes, and cholesterol, our cardiologists draw on extensive experience to make an accurate diagnosis and identify the most appropriate treatment, often times without surgery.

Our Cardiology Department offers a full spectrum of clinical services and diagnostic testing. And, our Cardiac Catheterization Lab, located on the Mercer Campus, provides state-of-the-art digital technology with a skilled and caring staff who have experience in performing cardiac catheterizations.

Patients with vascular disease are at a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Our catheterization lab works in conjunction with the vascular lab to provide full-service diagnostic and interventional care to meet the needs of all our patients in the hopes of providing optimal coordination and overall care of our patients.

In addition, we offer a wide variety of services for our pediatric patients including an echocardiography program, transmitted over dedicated high-speed fiberoptic lines for neonates, infants and children. This gives Capital Health physicians real-time access to St. Christopher Hospital for Children’s pediatric cardiologists, on a 24 hours, seven days a week.

If you have suffered a heart attack or undergone a cardiac procedure, you may be a good candidate for our outpatient cardiac rehabilitation and fitness program or pulmonary rehabilitation program, located on both campuses. Each program is personalized to fit the needs of the patient. The program consists of supervised exercise with cardiac telemetry monitoring, plus lifestyle modification and nutrition counseling. The rehab team focuses on helping each patient live and cope successfully with heart disease, while guiding them to their maximum potential.
