Heart Care Close to Home
If home is where your heart is, then that’s exactly where your heart care should be too. Peterson Health’s advanced Cardiology Clinic and accredited Heart and Vascular Department provide top quality heart care in the Texas Hill Country, built on the determination to keep your heart going strong, your whole life long.
Our extensive Cardiology program offers access to life-saving Vascular care, including Pulmonology, Catheterization Lab, Cardiac Rehabilitation, Vascular Surgery, and Cardiac Wellness. The program typically follows a three-phase approach to vascular health starting with intervention, healing with rehabilitation, and creating longevity through wellness.
PHASE 1: Intervention
Intervention occurs when a patient is experiencing vascular stenosis, meaning there is an obstruction or blockage in the vessel that is lessening or completely halting blood flow.
Stenosis affecting the heart needs to be addressed immediately. If you or a loved one are experiencing chest pain, please visit our Emergency Department for evaluation and treatment.
PHASE 2: Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation
When the immediate need is resolved, intervention is complete, and your system has found its rhythm, our focus turns to establishing lifestyle habits that promote heart health, such as nutrition and exercise.
Our exceptional team of Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Nurses and Exercise Physiologists work with you to integrate healing habits, a combination of physical and educational components, into daily life.
PHASE 3: Cardiac Wellness
When the foundation for healthy habits is solidified in rehabilitation, it’s time to focus on your longterm wellness plan and develop an exercise program that will continue for life.
Healthy decisions are extremely important to keep your heart pumping, this includes follow-up appointments with your Peterson team to monitor progress and receive guidance for overall wellness.
