Cardiology
Cardiology is the medical treatment of diseases of the heart and parts of the circulatory system. Cardiologists are the doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating these conditions.

Our cardiovascular services
Our heart doctors and specialists are skilled and experienced in providing high-quality cardiac care with compassion and effectiveness.
Heart scans
Early detection of heart disease is the best defense in managing, improving or alleviating the disease. We use a variety of heart screening and imaging tools that allow us to diagnose cardiovascular diseases and other heart conditions in their earliest stages.
Emergency heart attack care
The American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association state that 90 minutes is the standard minimum time to treat heart attacks. We consistently beat this national average, providing interventional treatment for heart attack patients in less than 90 minutes. That means faster care and better outcomes for our patients.
Vascular treatments and interventions
The board-certified cardiovascular surgeons at the HCA HealthONE Mountain Ridge for Vascular Disease offer a wide range of surgical procedures. We also provide minimally invasive, catheter-based procedures, including interventional radiology to treat heart and vascular conditions quickly and effectively.
Interventional radiology for vascular disease
Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive, image-guided procedure. It is a fast and effective way to diagnose (and sometimes treat) a wide range of conditions and diseases. Our interventional radiologists use this technique by inserting a thin catheter with an attached camera into your artery (typically in the arm or groin area). Through the camera, the radiologist guides the catheter to diagnose and treat vascular conditions.
When possible, we use this approach to reduce recovery time and complications by providing treatment for vascular disease without surgery.
