Certain blood tests are done in the office, and certain studies are sent to outside labs. Please note that if you wish to have morning blood work done, you should have nothing to eat that morning before you arrive.

Cardiac testing done in the office includes electrocardiograms, exercise testing, continuous 24 hour cardiac monitoring (Holter monitoring), and cardiac echocardiography.

Some cardiac tests require that you do not take certain of your medications. If you are unsure, please ask.

Cardiac catheterizations and coronary interventional procedures are performed at the hospital.

For this reason, we freely consult other providers when other specialized techniques are indicated.
