Interventional Cardiology

When heart disease requires more than medication, Mount Carmel’s interventional cardiologists use advanced catheter-based techniques to diagnose and treat complex conditions — including heart attacks (STEMI), coronary artery blockages, and structural valve disorders such as aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation. These minimally invasive approaches often mean shorter hospital stays and faster recovery.

Structural Heart and Valve

Mount Carmel’s structural heart and valve team uses advanced imaging and both minimally invasive and surgical approaches to treat complex conditions affecting the heart’s valves and structural anatomy — including aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, tricuspid valve disease, and aortic insufficiency. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures every treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s specific condition and overall health.

Vascular Imaging

Mount Carmel offers a comprehensive suite of diagnostic imaging tests to identify heart and vascular conditions, including echocardiography, vascular ultrasound, nuclear stress testing, and CT angiography. Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment, and our imaging specialists work closely with your care team to guide next steps.

Vascular & Vein Care

Our vascular surgeons diagnose and treat diseases of the blood vessels — including aortic aneurysms, carotid artery disease, peripheral artery disease (PAD), and varicose veins — using a combination of advanced imaging, minimally invasive procedures, and open surgical techniques.
