Consultative Services
We Welcome Referrals
We welcome referrals from other physicians to The Cardiac & Vascular
Interventional Group for assessments from Dr. G. Mark Jenkins.
Some of the consultative services we provide include:
-
Heart Failure Clinic: Many types of heart disease can cause heart failure, such as coronary
artery disease that makes the hear progressively weaker and stiffer. While
the condition cannot be reversed or cured, ongoing treatment and making
necessary lifestyle changes can improve your quality of life and reduce
the impact of the symptoms.
-
Vascular Disease Consultation: These conditions affect the blood vessels of your body outside of the
heart and brain. Vascular conditions can affect the whole body, but fortunately,
most are highly treatable.
-
Cardiac Disease Consultation: Whether you (or your primary doctor) have a specific concern of a known
or possible cardiac problem or need a more general evaluation, we can
provide a confirmatory or second opinion. Dr. Jenkins will start by speaking
with you and evaluating you before doing any further testing.
-
24-Hour Pre-Operative Assessment: We want you to be ready for surgery before the day of your operation,
so we provide pre-op assessments to patients before they undergo heart surgery.
-
Coumadin Clinic: Also called Warfarin, Coumadin is a blood thinner necessary for some patients
to avoid heart problems or stroke.
-
Pacemaker Monitoring: Your Pacemaker helps regulate your heartbeat rhythm and prevents any electrical
abnormalities. We will periodically monitor your Pacemaker to ensure it
is working properly.
