Dept. News

Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with the heart and its diseases.

Patients can receive diagnostic testing and visit their physician all in one convenient location. The Heart Center features a warm atmosphere coupled with state-of-the-art technology. Patients in all of Utah County now have access to specialized cardiac care. Our cardiologists cover every area hospital for cardiac emergencies.

Our physicians are board certified in general cardiology and interventional cardiology. Interventional cardiology is an alternative to traditional cardiac surgery. Our group of physicians has expertise in all areas of cardiovascular care. We treat all cardiac diseases, peripheral arterial and venous disease. Cardiac MRIs can be performed in our own Imaging Center. We also offer retrievable IVC filters.
