  • Certification exam and residency training in internal medicine
  • Additional certification exams and training in both interventional cardiology and cardiology.
What conditions does an Interventional Cardiologist treat?

Interventional cardiologists diagnose and treat conditions of the heart and blood vessels, including:

  • Angina (chest pain)
  • Arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm)
  • Cardiomyopathy (weakening or enlargement of the heart muscle)
  • Congenital heart defects including patent foramen ovale and atrial septal defect
  • Heart attack (myocardial infarction)
  • Heart failure
  • Abnormalities of the valves, heart valve disorders
  • Myocarditis or heart inflammation
What diagnostic tests are required by an Interventional Cardiologist?

  • EKG (ECG or electrocardiogram) to record your heart rhythm
  • Echocardiogram (or ultrasound) to assess the heart structure and function

What can you expect from your first visit with an Interventional Cardiologist?

Your first visit to an interventional cardiologist will involve a check of your vitals, which is a non-invasive method to measure your heart’s electrical activity.

The cardiologist will examine your heart health and might suggest some tests that can include urine or blood tests, an electrocardiogram (EKG), an PET, MRI, or CT scan, or a stress test. An interventional cardiologist can diagnose any existing condition and determine future risks. They will also help create a routine that benefits your overall heart health and reduces your risk of developing heart conditions.
