After a thorough office appointment with a board-certified physician, the doctor will recommend tests and health management options tailored to your needs.

In other cases, medications for anti-coagulation management (sometimes called “blood thinners”) or regulating lipid and cholesterol levels may be appropriate. Physicians at Tri-City Cardiology are also specialists at cardiac sleep disorder assessment, identifying sleep problems that may be impacted by cardiovascular health.
- Emergency CareThe knowledge, experience, and skill set continue to save my life. The staff all involved in patient care enhances my thankfulness unto God for life continuing. Medically, literally I was dead for 10 minutes in a hospital emergency room. Hooked up with every tube, wire, machine, monitor, with nurses, technicians, doctors ready to call "it", WAIT.........a faint electric signal from my brain - emergency room personnel jumped all over me. My wife can explain with detail what happened. Once stabilized & admitted to IC for many days, Dr. J came in, looked at my chart & scheduled heart stent surgery. By God's grace through skillful surgery & follow up care I write this appreciation review with grateful expression! It is now 17 months since that miraculous event. Follow up care is 4-6 months presently.

This infection, when untreated, can lead to heart valve damage. The damage can show up years or decades after the infection. Rheumatic fever is the most common cause of mitral valve stenosis, especially among people born before 1943. Modern use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections has greatly reduced this problem in the U.S. and many other countries.

Although symptoms vary according to where the problem occurs and the degree of vessel blockage, the most common sign is pain that occurs while walking but that goes away at rest.
