Cardiology

Henry County Hospital Cardiology

It’s critical to take care of your heart. That’s because heart disease is the #1 killer of both men and women worldwide, yet many do not realize they have a heart-related condition until an event such as a stroke or cardiac arrest occurs. Your primary care provider can help you assess your risk profile for heart problems, and if you have heart disease warning signs, they can refer you to a cardiologist close to home.

What Does a Cardiologist Do?

As a specialist in the heart, a cardiologist is a physician you can turn to when you have heart-related conditions that affect either your heart or your circulatory system. The heart is responsible for re-oxygenating blood and transporting it throughout the body through blood vessels called arteries and veins. You may need to see a cardiologist if heart disease runs in your family, if you are a smoker, or if you have high blood pressure or high cholesterol. Your cardiologist is trained to treat a variety of heart conditions so you can live a better quality of life.

Treatments for Heart Disease

Cardiologists have a number of interventional procedures used to treat and manage heart disease.

• Depending on your specific symptoms and overall health, treatments vary, but may include:
• Angioplasty to widen narrowed arteries
• Bypass surgery to improve heart function
• Open heart surgery to repair heart valves, hardened arteries, implantation of medical devices, heart transplants, or repairing damage to abnormalities
• Vascular surgery to improve the function of the veins, arteries, and lymphatic vessels
• Pacemaker implants send electrical signals to the heart to prevent erratic heartbeats
• Cardiac Catheterization to the list of treatments

Clinic Hours

• Tuesdays and Fridays from 8:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
