Cardiac Care

Known as one of the most comprehensive and experienced cardiac programs in the western United States, Good Samaritan Hospital's cardiac care encompasses a full-array of diagnostic, noninvasive and interventional cardiology services. The hospital's acclaimed specialists provide:

Treatment of coronary artery disease (the "plumbing" problems of the heart), with the most advanced techniques, including atherectomy and stents
Therapy for arrythmias (the "electrical" disturbances of the heart)
Therapies for aortic and mitral valve stenosis, including "balloon dilation" as a nonsurgical option
A new, nonsurgical approach for atrial septal defects with a "Cardioseal device"
Treatments for peripheral vascular disease and stroke interventions
Sophisticated diagnosis of heart disease through the use of echocardiolography (heart ultrasound)

Good Samaritan Hospital's Cardiology Program has been designated a "Center of Excellence" by a number of large, self-insured corporations, which encourage their employees to select this hospital for cardiac care.
