Cardiology

Bronx Health Wellness provides exceptional cardiovascular care to our patients in the Bronx and surrounding communities. Our cardiology services are designed to assess, diagnose, and treat various heart conditions to help you achieve optimal heart health. Whether you’re managing an existing heart condition or seeking preventive care, our expert doctors are here to guide you through every step of your heart health journey.

Comprehensive Heart Health Evaluations

We understand that heart disease can affect individuals in different ways, and it’s crucial to identify risk factors early. Our comprehensive heart health evaluations are designed to assess your cardiovascular system and identify any potential issues. These evaluations typically include a detailed review of your medical history, lifestyle habits, family history of heart disease, and current symptoms. During the evaluation, our cardiologists will perform a thorough physical examination, check your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and assess your heart's overall health.

Our evaluations are personalized, meaning that our doctors consider your unique health needs and any specific concerns. Based on the results, we will work with you to develop a customized plan for managing your heart health, which may include lifestyle changes, medications, and follow-up appointments to track your progress.

Electrocardiograms (ECG)

An Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a quick, non-invasive test that measures the electrical activity of your heart. It helps identify any irregularities in heart rhythms (arrhythmias) or other heart conditions, such as heart attacks, heart failure, or issues with the heart’s electrical system. At Bronx Health Wellness, our team is highly trained in performing and interpreting ECGs to detect potential problems early, ensuring that you receive the appropriate care.

Prevention and Early Detection of Heart Disease

By identifying early warning signs and risk factors for heart disease, we can help you reduce the chances of developing serious heart conditions in the future. Our heart health evaluations include assessing your risk for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, and a family history of heart disease, all of which contribute to an increased risk of heart disease.

In addition to regular screenings, we provide counseling on lifestyle changes that can significantly improve heart health. Our team emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and smoking cessation. We offer individualized plans and support to help you make sustainable changes that contribute to better heart health.

Heart Disease Treatment and Management

For patients already diagnosed with heart conditions, we offer comprehensive treatment and management options to keep your heart healthy and reduce symptoms. We specialize in managing conditions such as:

• Coronary artery disease

• Heart failure

• High blood pressure (hypertension)

• High cholesterol (hyperlipidemia)
