I have a lot of issues going on and he was able to put my mind at ease. From the reception desk in the hallway, office employees and the staff were exceptional, everyone was very professional, polite and all really showed that TEAM mentality. I was completely happy and felt self assured that I was at the right place. Thank you TEAM WELLSTAR

Hi, it was very tough to get in and make sure that it was my first time there and there was no one, a receptionist, they were gone to lunch, which is totally okay, they need lunch, but if there was a way to stagger it because there was like 25 people sitting down like patient wise when they finally got back and if it's your first time you don't know if that's okay or not and some of these people have high anxiety and heart problems. But everyone was extremely friendly all the way from the beginning to the end of finally meeting someone, it's just like my first 40 minutes I didn't see a soul to ask anything to know if I was even in the right place. So best of luck with that or maybe it can't be solved but I thought I'd leave that, thank you.

I did not get seen by the doctor until 45 minutes after my scheduled appointment time. There was no apology for the delay. The visit with him was short and quick. 10 minutes max. I was very disappointed because he worked so well with my mom. I just thought I would be treated with the same level of care. Obviously I was wrong.

Hi, it was very tough to get in and make sure that it was my first time there and there was no one, a receptionist, they were gone to lunch, which is totally okay, they need lunch, but if there was a way to stagger it because there was like 25 people sitting down like patient wise when they finally got back and if it's your first time you don't know if that's okay or not and some of these people have high anxiety and heart problems. But everyone was extremely friendly all the way from the beginning to the end of finally meeting someone, it's just like my first 40 minutes I didn't see a soul to ask anything to know if I was even in the right place. So best of luck with that or maybe it can't be solved but I thought I'd leave that, thank you.

Tom playing pickleball

TomCare

When COVID forced everyone to spend more time at home, Tom Murphy decided he wouldn’t sit around idle. At 62, he upped his regular activity to work out with his son, daughter and daughter’s fiancé—college athletes who kept him in top shape.

Tom’s go-to workout was a long walk in a hilly East Cobb neighborhood. He and the kids also played a lot of pickleball.

About a year in, Tom noticed a physical change.

“I was playing fewer games of pickleball at a time and making it only halfway through my walks,” he said.

Tom turned to his cardiologist, who, with the help of specialized imaging offered at Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center, created a personalized action plan.

Getting answers with the help of HeartFlow

During Tom’s annual appointment with Dr. George Kramer, he shared his concerns about his symptoms.

“I do sports with my kids, and I’m short of breath,” Tom said.

The physician requested a cardiac CT (CCTA), the new standard for detecting heart disease, according to the American Heart Association. It can be more accurate than treadmill stress tests and is less invasive than cardiac catheterization.

“Results of the initial CT showed two blockages,” Dr. Kramer said. “One blockage was 67%, one was 75%, and we decided to follow up with further analysis using the HeartFlow test.”

Because Wellstar was the first HeartFlow Platinum site in Georgia, the cardiology staff were able to create a personalized, 3D model of Tom’s coronary arteries to check on blood flow. HeartFlow is a fractional reserve assessment that looks at how each blockage impacts the heart. Previously, this in-depth view of the heart could only happen with a more invasive procedure.

According to Dr. Kramer, the test itself has been “a godsend” since it makes it possible for patients to avoid invasive tests while still getting important—and potentially lifesaving—information about their hearts.

HeartFlow revealed the blood flow to Tom’s heart was significantly compromised.

Doing good CPR is critical to save someone from cardiac arrest.

KevinCare

There aren’t many people out there who can say they survived cardiac arrest at 30. Kevin Miskewicz can.

According to the American Heart Association, more than 90% of people who experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die. Those who survive often have permanent neurological disabilities. But Kevin’s story has an incredibly fortunate ending, thanks to the highly coordinated work of his medical experts at Wellstar.

Recovering from cardiac arrest is something Kevin will never forget. It lives forever as a piece of his health history—one that includes a dedicated healthcare team—and his wife, who was the first to save his life.

There aren’t many people out there who can say they survived cardiac arrest at 30. Kevin can.

CPR to the rescue

Kevin woke up on Labor Day 2017 at 5:30 AM to take the dog out. Pausing to adjust the thermostat as he came in, he fell, knocking over a lamp.

He was in cardiac arrest.

With no symptoms and no known pre-existing condition, this was unexpected, but that didn’t stop his wife, Andrea, from jumping into action.

“If it weren’t for me knocking over a lamp when I passed out,” said Kevin, “she would have never woken up and saved my life.”

In addition to calling 911 and unlocking the door for the paramedics, Andrea performed CPR for 10 minutes.

“Kevin’s wife doing good CPR was critical,” said Dr. Arthur Reitman, the interventional cardiologist who was a vital part of Kevin’s treatment team at Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center. “More than five minutes of poor blood flow to the brain can result in permanent irreparable injury from which a patient is unable to recover.”

Coordinating multidisciplinary care to save a life

When paramedics arrived at Kevin’s home, he had no pulse and was not breathing. As the paramedics performed their lifesaving work, he technically died two times.

The ambulance took him to Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center, where he was initially assessed and treated by Dr. David Jacoboff. The interventional cardiologist implanted an intra-aortic balloon pump to stabilize him. Then, he transferred Kevin to Wellstar Kennestone for highly specialized heart care.

When Kevin arrived at Wellstar Kennestone by helicopter, his heart function wasn’t strong enough to support his body. Dr. Reitman and a team of doctors including a cardiologist, a pulmonologist and critical care doctors worked in tandem to put Kevin on an advanced life support system called veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Better known as VA-ECMO, it took the heart “offline” so it could heal. The technology removed unoxygenated blood from his body, oxygenated it and pumped it back in for the next three days.

“Very few places in the state—only four or five hospitals—have the technology and specialized training to put a patient on ECMO,” Dr. Reitman explained.

Wellstar Innovation Series Explores Future of Healthcare

The future of healthcare is on a rapid acceleration path as new technologies empower patients and providers with unprecedented information access and care delivery solutions that enhance health and wellness. Wellstar Health System continues to foster collaboration to design the future of healthcare, building on a rich history of innovation and impact in delivering world-class care to millions of people each year. As part of this ongoing focus, the Wellstar Foundation hosted the second Innovation Series event, “Designing the Future of Healthcare: Digital Health Technologies” on June 15, convening experts and thought leaders from Wellstar, Microsoft, Sharecare, and across the nation.

Panel discussion and breakout sessions explore transformative technologies

More than 100 participants attended the virtual roundtable event, which included a panel discussion and breakout sessions focused on leading technologies that have the potential to transform healthcare. The panel was moderated by Julie Teer, senior vice president of Wellstar and president of the Wellstar Foundation. Panelists included:

  • Dr. Clifford Goldsmith, chief medical officer and national director, U.S. Providers, Microsoft Health and Life Sciences
  • Jeff Arnold, founder, chairman and chief executive officer, Sharecare
  • Dr. Hank Capps, executive vice president and chief information & digital officer of Wellstar

“There has never been a time in healthcare when getting the technology strategy right was more imperative than now,” Dr. Goldsmith said. “There is a massive transformation underway in healthcare to significantly increase clinician productivity and enable teamwork across the care continuum, which will be a huge boost to patient satisfaction. Thank you to Wellstar for hosting this important conversation to fuel innovation.”

Digital health is transforming healthcare through integrating innovation and advanced technology into patient care, improving quality of care and expanding access. In addition to the panel, three breakout sessions facilitated conversation about leading-edge, advanced technologies, including:

  • Machine learning and artificial intelligence to help provide augmented support for healthcare professionals across a wide range of specialties and operations
  • Advanced sensors to enhance diagnostics that simplify the patient experience and foster patient-provider communication and collaboration
  • Merged Reality (Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality) to enhance business insight, training, and patient partnership

Physician leaders from Wellstar Medical Group provided expert insights in the breakout discussions on the potential applications and impacts of these technologies on the future of healthcare. Physician experts included:

  • Dr. Rishi Gupta, vascular neurologist
  • Dr. Arthur Reitman, interventional cardiologist
  • Dr. Barry Mangel, interventional cardiologist

“The future of healthcare is not a 2025 vision – it is a 2021 reality,” said Sharecare’s Arnold. “Georgia continues to strengthen its position as a global center for public health, information technology, and digital media; and Wellstar is at the center with their focus on partnerships and healthcare innovation. Discussions such as the Wellstar Innovation Series help create momentum around viable solutions that will address gaps in care and a make a meaningful difference in the health and well-being of communities throughout the Peach State and beyond.”

The event followed Wellstar’s March 3, 2021 announcement that it will become the country’s first Sharecare-enabled health system, and the May 18, 2021 launch of Catalyst by WellstarTM, the first-of-its-kind global digital health and innovation center created and operated within a health system. Catalyst by Wellstar is designed to harness, accelerate, optimize, and scale people-centric solutions that:

  • Disrupt how Wellstar delivers care to create better patient and provider experiences
  • Maximize quality and safety to improve outcomes while reducing the total cost of care
  • Enhance health and well-being for people through access, engagement, and empowerment
  • Optimize enterprise performance excellence, efficiencies, and productivity
  • Impact communities and the world by designing the future of healthcare

To further fuel healthcare transformation, Wellstar also announced a partnership with Engage, a collaborative innovation and corporate venture platform. Wellstar is the only healthcare company to partner with Engage, alongside other partners Chick-fil-A, Cox Enterprises, Delta Air Lines, Georgia-Pacific, Georgia Power Foundation, Georgia Tech, Goldman Sachs, The Home Depot, Inspire Brands, Intercontinental Exchange, Invesco, Invest Georgia, Tech Square Ventures, and UPS.

Innovation Series convenes thought leaders and changemakers

The Wellstar Foundation’s Innovation Series convenes thought leaders, community partners, and industry experts in a series of roundtable discussions to explore how to transform healthcare to better serve Georgians. The conversations aim to facilitate collaboration that will lead to meaningful action and a pathway to transforming healthcare in Georgia. The series covers topics of health equity, digital health technologies, behavioral health and wellness, women’s health and pediatrics, and workforce planning.
