Heart Consultants in Silver Spring

Beschreibung

 
The expert cardiology team at Heart Consultants provides advanced diagnostic and treatment options combined with the highest standard of care to promote heart health and wellness. The practice has locations in Silver Spring, Maryland, and Washington, DC, where their cardiologists perform various procedures to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease.
Board-certified cardiologist Luc Oke, MD, leads the team at Heart Consultants, helping patients suffering from a broad range of heart health problems, including hypertension (high blood pressure), lipid disorders (high cholesterol), chest pain, cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat), heart valve disorders, cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, and peripheral artery disease.
The Heart Consultants team helps patients understand how certain risk factors, such as smoking, poor diet, stress, inactivity, sleep deprivation, and high cholesterol, affect their heart health. Treating a patient with a heart condition takes more than a prescription or medical procedure, often requiring a change in lifestyle. The team works closely with patients to develop a personalized care plan that best meets their needs.
State-of-the-art diagnostic facilities are available on-site, so patients can benefit from convenient access to duplex ultrasound, echocardiography, electrocardiography (ECG), stress testing, electrophysiology testing, portable and implantable monitoring, and nuclear imaging.
Among the cutting-edge treatments the Heart Consultants team specializes are pacemaker implantation, implantable cardiac defibrillators, catheter ablation, radiofrequency ablation, device lead extractions, cardioversions, cardiac catheterizations, and stent implantation.
Dr. Oke and his team offer minimally invasive procedures and tests that other practices may not be able to perform in-office and ensure patients can take advantage of the newest cardiac devices on the market.
