Cardiologists
A cardiologist is a heart specialist who treats conditions of the heart itself as well as blood vessels. They address conditions or disease that result from coronary artery disease, heart arrhythmias or congenital defects. Beacon has cardiologists specializing in specific areas. You may work with a non-invasive cardiologist who performs procedures such as stress tests, echocardiograms, and coronary CTAs, an interventional cardiologist who does invasive procedures such as a diagnostic catheterization, percutaneous coronary intervention and structural heart procedures that affect the heart pump, or an electrophysiologist who specializes in treating your heart’s electrical system, which controls heart rhythm.
