About Us
About Us
The Wellstar Center for Cardiovascular Care offers nationally-recognized comprehensive heart care at more than 20 locations. Our team of heart experts includes board-certified doctors who subspecialize in different areas so patients have access to the care they need, when they need it. We work closely with all heart subspecialists at Wellstar and can connect you with interventional cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, structural heart specialists and more.

Advanced heart failure

Physicians at this location have advanced heart failure training and expertise beyond general cardiologists or internists. We help people manage severe heart failure with the most advanced treatments and the latest surgical and non-surgical techniques. Each patient is unique — our focus is to create and help you implement the most personalized plan to help reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life. Some patients benefit from specialized medication and devices as well as non-surgical treatments to widen valves or open blocked arteries. For others, the best option may be open-heart surgery. We refer patients for transplant therapy if appropriate.

Cardiac Rehabilitation
Wellstar’s world-class cardiac rehabilitation team works together to help people learn lifelong heart-healthy behaviors and lower their risk for future heart issues.

The goal of cardiac rehabilitation is to significantly decrease or eliminate the risk factors that cause a progression of coronary artery disease. We start with a thorough evaluation, then create a plan of monitored exercise, lifestyle education and emotional support designed just for you.
