Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist do?

A Interventional Cardiology cardiologist is a Cardiology physician with focused training in the catheter-based treatment of heart and vascular disease, including angioplasty and stent placement. After completing Cardiology residency, they pursue additional fellowship training so they can manage cases that fall outside what a general cardiologist typically handles day to day.

What conditions does a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist treat?

A Interventional Cardiology cardiologist commonly treats coronary artery disease, heart attack (acute MI), structural heart disease, valvular heart disease (TAVR), and peripheral artery disease. Many also see closely related conditions within Cardiology, particularly when a case is complex, atypical, or has not responded to first-line care from a general cardiologist.

When should I see a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist?

Consider seeing a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist when your cardiologist recommends a procedure such as angioplasty, stenting, or TAVR, when a primary care clinician or general cardiologist suggests a focused evaluation, or when you want a second opinion from a physician whose practice is concentrated on this exact area. Patients often reach a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist through referral, but you can also seek one directly.

How is a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist different from a general cardiologist?

Both are board-eligible cardiologists, but a Interventional Cardiology cardiologist has additional fellowship training and a practice that focuses on the catheter-based treatment of heart and vascular disease, including angioplasty and stent placement. General cardiologists treat a broad range of Cardiology concerns; Interventional Cardiology cardiologists concentrate on the harder or more specific cases within that range, and tend to see a higher volume of patients with coronary artery disease, heart attack (acute MI), structural heart disease, valvular heart disease (TAVR), and peripheral artery disease.
