The Center for Advanced Cardiology is located on the campus of Memorial Hermann-Katy. Affiliated Interventional Cardiologists specialize in the detection, treatment and prevention of diseases of the heart.
Besides heart failure, the clinic also treats: heart attacks, valve defects, stroke, atherosclerosis (narrowed arteries), arrhythmia (irregular heartbeats), cardiomyopathy (inflexible or enlarged hearts), congenital heart defects, virus-caused ailments and clogged vessels in the body beyond the heart and brain, known as peripheral vascular disease (PVD). These are factors that tax the heart and should be addressed to avoid hospitalizations and heart failure, which occurs when the heart contracts and expands inefficiently, compromising blood’s shuttling through the body.
The multi-dimensional Center not only offers the latest in diagnoses and noninvasive treatments and surgery, but also access to Memorial Hermann’s smoking cessation, nutritional and fitness programs.
