Dear colleagues,
We’d like to welcome you to this edition of the AMITA Health Vital Signs, featuring a profile of the AMITA Health Heart & Vascular Institute. Our goal is to collaborate with you and introduce you to the expertise and capabilities of the AMITA Health Heart & Vascular Institute, where patients receive leading-edge cardiovascular care in a community setting.
We take a multidisciplinary approach to cardiovascular medicine, with interventional cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons and cardiac imaging clinicians forming integrated teams that provide comprehensive care for each patient. Patients benefit when specialists consult across disciplines. Working together, the team at the AMITA Health Heart & Vascular Institute is able to provide integrated services across the continuum of care, from diagnosis to treatment to follow-up.
The AMITA Health Heart & Vascular Institute is highly responsive to patient needs, taking a service-oriented and personalized approach to patient care. We work closely with referring providers to develop individualized treatment plans. Patients can expect convenient scheduling and low wait times to see their care team, which goes a long way towards minimizing the stress of illness. Our physicians keep open lines of communication with referring providers through emails, personal phone calls and secure texts.
