Cardiovascular Care That Comes from the Heart
At Summa Health, we combine advanced, award-winning care with genuine compassion, from diagnosis through recovery. For Chuck, that care made all the difference – helping him heal and find his rhythm again.
Conditions and Services
The Summa Health Heart and Vascular Institute’s skilled team of specialists and supporting healthcare professionals are trained to treat a wide range of cardiac issues. Focused on positive patient outcomes, we effectively treat such a broad range of heart diseases and conditions by using advanced medical management and surgery options, as well as the most comprehensive list of cardiology services.
Valve Disease
Valve disease occurs when heart valves don’t function properly, disrupting blood flow and straining the heart, which can cause fatigue, shortness of breath, swelling, or heart failure.
Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary artery disease occurs when plaque builds up in the heart’s arteries, narrowing them and reducing blood flow, which can lead to angina or heart attack.
Vascular Disease
Vascular disease narrows, blocks, or weakens blood vessels, reducing blood flow and causing conditions like carotid artery disease, peripheral artery disease, aneurysms, and varicose veins.
Abnormal Heart Rhythm
An arrhythmia is an abnormal heart rhythm that’s too fast, too slow, or irregular. Treatments include electrophysiology, atrial fibrillation (AFib), anticoagulation therapy and devices like a pacemaker.
Heart Failure
Heart failure occurs when the heart can’t pump blood effectively, causing fatigue, shortness of breath and fluid buildup.
Cardiothoracic Care
Cardiothoracic care focuses on treating conditions of the heart, lungs and chest. It addresses problems such as heart disease, blocked arteries, heart valve conditions and lung disorders.
Cardiac Rehabilitation
Cardiac rehabilitation program of exercise, education, and lifestyle counseling that helps people recover from heart disease and improve heart health.
Clinical Trials and Research
Clinical trials and research test new treatments, medications, and procedures to improve heart and vascular care and advance medical knowledge.
Cardiac Imaging and Testing
Cardiac imaging and testing evaluate heart structure and function using tools like echocardiograms, stress tests, CT scans, and MRIs.
