Our patients have access to diagnostic tools including:

- Electrocardiograms (EKGs; to assess the electrical activity of the heart)

- Treadmill stress testing (also called an exercise stress test; used to observe how the heart functions during exercise)
Our providers regularly complete these and other cardiac procedures:
