Heart Health Starts Here
What is Cardiology?
Cardiology is the field of medicine that focuses on the heart and circulatory system.
It involves the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of conditions that affect the heart, arteries, veins, and overall cardiovascular health.
From common concerns like high blood pressure and chest pain to more complex issues such as arrhythmias, heart failure, and heart attacks, cardiology plays a critical role in helping people live longer, healthier lives.
Our cardiologists use a wide range of tools—from physical exams and lab tests to electrocardiograms (ECGs), echocardiograms, and stress testing—to assess heart health and guide treatment.
We also emphasizes prevention and lifestyle changes, helping patients reduce their risk through diet, exercise, and regular monitoring.
Common conditions treated in cardiology include:
- Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): Narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, often leading to chest pain or heart attacks.
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Elevated pressure in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
- Arrhythmias: Irregular heart rhythms that can cause palpitations, dizziness, or fainting.
- Heart Failure: A condition where the heart can’t pump blood effectively, leading to fatigue and fluid buildup.
- Valvular Heart Disease: Malfunctioning of one or more heart valves, affecting blood flow.
- Congenital Heart Defects: Structural heart problems present from birth.
- Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): Narrowing of arteries in the limbs, leading to pain and mobility issues.
- Cardiomyopathy: Disease of the heart muscle affecting its ability to pump blood.
