Welcome to the MCGHealth Cardiovascular Center where we offer state-of-the-art, comprehensive cardiac care at one of Georgia's premier research and educational institutions.  While you are here, you can expect to be treated by cardiologists recognized both here and abroad for their expertise in preventative, diagnostic, and interventional Cardiology. Additional resources are available to address the special needs of adult patients born with congenital heart defects through our close association with the Medical College's renowned Pediatric Cardiology program. Finally, those patients requiring cardiac surgery can expect to benefit from the surgical skills offered by surgeons with extensive experience in valve replacement and coronary artery bypass. 

And, unlike many private centers, patients at the Cardiovascular Center can rest comfortably knowing that they have 24-hour-a-day, in-house physician supervised care to assure the most prompt response to any cardiac emergency that may arise - including 24-hour access to a state-of-the-art, rapid-response cardiac catheterization lab. 

Faculty maintain an active Coronary Care Unit, Cardiac Step Down Facility, and two Cardiac Telemetry Wards.  The Wards and Step Down Facility are jointly administered with Cardiothoracic Surgery.  In addition, an Emergency Room Observation Chest Pain Unit cooperating with the Emergency Medicine Faculty is fully operational.  A novel joint approach to Cardiac Care with jointly occupied Wards and Clinics operated with Cardiothoracic Surgery is under development.

So, if you or someone you know is in need of specialized cardiac care, think of the MCGHealth.
your care. your way.
