At Cardiac & Vascular Interventional Group, our mission is to provide compassionate, family-centered heart and vascular care for patients in Dallas, DeSoto, and throughout North Texas. We are committed to combining clinical excellence with genuine care, using advanced technology, education, and awareness to help detect and treat cardiovascular conditions as early as possible.
We believe every patient deserves care that is personal, respectful, and rooted in trust. By serving patients of all backgrounds and working to close gaps in healthcare, we strive to make a meaningful difference in the heart health of the communities we serve.
The Cardiac & Vascular Interventional Group (CVIG) was formed to provide comprehensive cardiac and vascular diagnostic and interventional services to patients in Dallas and all of North Texas.
Here at The Cardiac & Vascular Interventional Group, we are committed to applying our clinical excellence and expertise to treating patients of all backgrounds. Innovation, community service, closing disparities in medicine, and compassionate & family-centered care are the hallmarks of what make CVIG special.
With the skilled guidance of our acclaimed providers (Dr. Jenkins, MD, FACC; Dr. Bowen, MD; GeTonya Dickerson, NP) we are keenly focused on the care of the community. Our practice specializes in the treatment of coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, and structural heart disease (namely TAVR, WATCHMAN, and PFO Closure). .
Under the guidance of Dr. Jenkins, Dr. Bowen, and GeTonya Dickerson, NP, we want you to trust that your comprehensive cardiac and vascular needs are in good hands.
Thanks to modern and cutting-edge technologies, heart disease can be detected and diagnosed early. When it is, there are many interventions available that can provide patients a higher quality of life.
The Cardiac & Vascular Interventional Group provides several services to help detect and treat heart disease, including:
Foot pain that won't quit, especially at rest or at night, can sometimes point to more than a foot problem. It may be an early sign of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), where narrowed arteries keep your feet from getting enough oxygen. If you've been seeing a podiatrist for ongoing foot pain without clear answers, it's worth asking whether circulation could be a factor. A simple vascular screening can help rule PAD in or out.
If your calves, thighs, or hips tighten up or cramp when you walk and ease up when you stop, it could be more than a muscle issue. This pattern, sometimes called claudication, can be a sign of reduced blood flow from PAD. Many people assume it's tied to aging, posture, or a joint problem, but circulation is often worth a closer look. A vascular evaluation can help clarify what's actually going on.
A foot sore that's been treated for weeks or months without closing may not just be a wound care issue. Poor circulation can slow or stall healing, which is one reason some wounds keep coming back despite careful management. If you or your podiatrist have been struggling with a sore that won't close, having your circulation checked can help identify whether PAD is part of the picture.
When even small cuts, blisters, or scrapes take far longer to heal than expected, circulation is sometimes part of the reason. This is especially worth considering in patients with diabetes, where PAD can go undetected for years. If your podiatrist is managing slow-healing wounds, a vascular workup can help confirm whether reduced blood flow is contributing and guide the next steps in treatment.
Toes that look pale, bluish, purple, or darker than usual can be a sign that blood isn't reaching them well. Other possible clues include skin that feels cold, looks shiny, or has lost hair, or a foot that turns red when lowered and pale when raised. Changes like these are sometimes early signs of PAD, and a vascular evaluation can help determine whether circulation is the underlying issue.
