Consult with a Board-Certified Cardiologist

Your primary care physician may recommend outpatient or inpatient consultation with a board-certified cardiologist. Our experts at the Lifespan Cardiovascular Institute are available seven days a week for consultation and will provide a recommendation to you and your doctor the same day. We look at all general cardiology issues and can arrange subspecialty consultation if necessary for coronary care, heart rhythm disorders, surgery, congenital heart disease and early intervention to prevent future cardiac disease.
