Cardiovascular
Vail Health's Cardiovascular Center specializes in heart and vascular health, providing comprehensive diagnostic testing and medical management of coronary disease, hypertension, lipid disorders, arrhythmia, valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies and congestive heart failure. Additional services include pacemaker implantation, pre-operative evaluation and anticoagulation services, as well as cardiac rehabilitation and comprehensive screening physicals for young athletes.
Choose the cardiology service that is right for you:
- Anticoagulation Clinic: treatments using warfarin (Coumadin®), heparin and low molecular weight heparin
- Cardiac Diagnostics: extensive cardiac diagnostic testing
- Cardiac Rehabilitation Center: cardiac rehabilitation after a significant "heart event," heart health maintenance, prevention of further heart disease
- Cardiac Cath Lab
Vail Health's patients range from healthy adults seeking preventative cardiac care to those with significant cardiac illnesses. Our board certified cardiologists treat cardiac disease with a comprehensive approach that begins with diagnostics and assessments and can include treatments such as blood thinners, electrophysiology (which includes the advanced care for arrhythmias and the use of pacemakers and defibrillators) and/or rehabilitative measures.
While no referral is necessary to book a cardiology appointment, patients are encouraged to contact their insurance company to determine whether a referral is required for optimal insurance coverage. Call (970) 476-1110 for information or to schedule an appointment.
