Featured Services

Our Cardiac Services

Florida Cardiology Associates specializes in prevention, diagnostic testing, coronary, peripheral, structural intervention, pacemaker and defibrillators. We accept most insurances and will bill your insurance company for services like most other providers.

Cardiac Catheterization and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Clinical cardiology is a general consultative service that deals with all disorders of the heart including treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease, arrhythmias of the heart, hemodynamic monitoring, preventive cardiac care, and critical care management of our patients.

Stress testing Treadmill and Nuclear

A stress test is noninvasive, generally safe and painless. It may be administered in a number of different settings, including clinics, hospitals or physician’s offices. Exercise stress tests may be performed with echocardiography or nuclear imaging techniques

Defibrillator / Pacemaker

Having an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implanted may be done on an outpatient basis or as part of your stay in a hospital. Procedures may vary depending on your condition and your doctor’s practices. An ICD is a small electronic device connected to the heart. It is used to continuously monitor and help regulate potentially fast and life-threatening electrical problems with the heart.

Echocardiogram / Carotid / AAA and Vascular studies

An echocardiogram is a common diagnostic test that uses sound waves to create pictures of the heart and its vessels. It may also be called a transthoracic echocardiogram. The word “transthoracic” means “across the chest.”
