Cardiology FAQs

Common questions about cardiac care, procedures, and recovery answered by our specialists.

Cardiac catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure where a thin catheter is inserted through your wrist or groin to examine your heart's blood vessels. You'll be awake but sedated, and the procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes. Most patients go home the same day or after an overnight stay.
Recovery from coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) varies by patient. Most patients stay in the hospital for 5-7 days. Full recovery typically takes 6-12 weeks. Our cardiac rehabilitation program helps speed recovery with supervised exercise, nutritional guidance, and emotional support throughout the healing process.
Common warning signs include chest discomfort (pressure, squeezing, or pain), shortness of breath, pain radiating to the arm, jaw, or back, cold sweat, nausea, and lightheadedness. Women may experience less typical symptoms like extreme fatigue, indigestion, and anxiety. If you suspect a heart attack, call emergency services immediately.
Yes, we offer Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) for patients with aortic stenosis who are at intermediate to high risk for traditional open-heart surgery. This minimally invasive procedure replaces the diseased valve through a catheter, resulting in shorter hospital stays, less pain, and faster recovery.
Preventing heart disease involves a heart-healthy lifestyle: maintain a balanced diet low in saturated fats and sodium, exercise at least 150 minutes per week, avoid smoking, limit alcohol consumption, manage stress, control blood pressure and cholesterol, and maintain a healthy weight. Regular cardiac checkups are recommended, especially if you have a family history of heart disease.
