Cardiology
WELLSPIRE CARDIOLOGY AND VASCULAR CARE
The heart is the powerhouse of the human body. This life-sustaining muscle transports oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other essential materials to every part of our bodies, making a well-functioning cardiovascular system vital to good health. Cardiologists focus on preventing, diagnosing, and treating disorders of the heart and blood vessels. Conditions treated by cardiologists include narrowing of the arteries, abnormal heart rhythms, heart valve complications, heart attack, and stroke.
Managing risk factors is essential to maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system. You can improve your heart health through lifestyle choices such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, managing your weight, and avoiding smoking. If you are already experiencing symptoms of cardiovascular disease, early diagnosis and intervention can make a difference. Whether you are seeking diagnostic testing, assistance managing your cholesterol or blood pressure, or treatment for congestive heart failure, our cardiologists are here to help.
