Interventional Cardiology

Cardiovascular Care

Interventional cardiology can treat your heart problems without open-heart surgery. These procedures can open your blocked arteries or replace a damaged heart valve. Thin tubes and imaging tools guide treatment through small incisions, helping reduce your recovery time and possible complications. 

At WMCHealth, our interventional cardiology team uses advanced tools in a cardiac catheterization lab. Cardiac catheterization labs give your care team real-time imaging to diagnose and treat heart problems during the same procedure. In this setting, our experts can treat even complex heart problems using less invasive procedures. 

Interventional Cardiology Conditions Treated at WMCHealth
We use interventional techniques to diagnose and treat a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, including:
  • Angina (chest pain)
  • Heart attack
  • Aortic or mitral valve stenosis
  • Mitral or tricuspid regurgitation
  • Heart rhythm disorders
  • Structural heart disease
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Congenital heart defects (including ASD and PFO)
  • Heart failure requiring device support
  • Pulmonary hypertension
  • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Pediatric Cardiology: Diagnostics and Treatments

Some heart conditions begin early in life. If your child needs heart care, we work with pediatric cardiologists at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital. Services include: 

  • Diagnostic catheterization 
  • Non-surgical imaging and monitoring 
  • Referrals to pediatric cardiac specialists 
  • Transition-of-care planning into adulthood

Our Approach to Interventional Cardiology
Interventional cardiology often involves many steps and specialists. We focus on keeping your care connected and easy to follow:
  • Team-Based Planning: Your care team includes interventional cardiologists, heart surgeons, imaging specialists, and primary care doctors. We work together to create a plan tailored to your condition. We review your test results and treatment options as a team.
  • Coordinated Care at Every Step: We manage your care before, during, and after your procedure. We schedule needed tests, guide you through recovery, and plan your follow-up visits. This helps you get consistent care throughout your treatment.

TAVR: A Less Invasive Way to Replace Your Aortic Valve

If you have aortic valve stenosis and can’t have open-heart surgery, TAVR may be right for you. WMCHealth has performed this minimally invasive procedure more than 1,000 times—one of six New York State hospitals setting this pace. This experience makes us a trusted leader in the region.
