Comprehensive Cardiovascular Care in Okatie

Hilton Head Heart – Okatie brings the remarkable heart care you deserve right to your neighborhood. In our convenient office, providers specialize only in cardiac care. They have the tools and expertise needed to quickly investigate your concerns and deliver an accurate diagnosis. Then they will work with you to consider your health goals and determine your best treatment option.

Conditions we regularly diagnose and address include:

• Acute chest pain
• Heart arrhythmia
• Heart failure
• Vascular disease

Our patients have access to diagnostic tools including:

• Advanced cardiac imaging
• Echocardiograms (an ultrasound test to assess the function of heart muscles and valves)
• Electrophysiology (EP) studies (to investigate abnormal heart rhythms)
• Electrocardiograms (EKGs; to assess the electrical activity of the heart)
• Holter monitors (worn to record heart rhythms over time)
• Nuclear stress testing (a test which uses a small amount of radioactive dye to observe how blood travels through the heart at rest and during activity)
• 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:

• Cardiac catheterization and stenting (placement of a catheter or stent into the heart either to diagnose a concern or to improve blood flow)
• Pacemaker placement (to regulate or improve heart rhythm)
• Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement (placement of a device that detects and corrects abnormal heart rhythms)
