Cardiology
Our
Dallas Cardiovascular Center enables us to perform a multitude of diagnostic and interventional procedures
including: 24-hour holter monitoring, trans-esophageal/trans-thoracic
echocardiograms, electrocardiograms, stress tests, pacemaker insertions
and cardiac catheterizations.
Cardiology Catheterization Lab
Dallas Medical Center consistently meets or exceeds the door-to-balloon
time standard of 90 minutes thanks to our newly updated lab and experienced
Cardiac Cath Lab staff. The Cardiac Catheterization lab staff is available
24 hours a day for emergencies and remains fully trained and equipped
to respond within the national door to balloon time standard. The board
certified cardiologists work closely with the staff in monitoring these
patients and providing the best care for a positive outcome.
Diagnostic Testing
Echocardiograms, EKG’s and stress testing can all be arranged on
an outpatient basis for the patient’s treatment convenience. Diagnostic
cardiac catheterization patients are able to be admitted through day surgery
and can be discharged home the same day.
We have a highly qualified team of heart doctors that offer prevention,
detection, and treatment of heart diseases in Dallas.
Preventive Care
Leading the way in preventive care, Dr. Osborne is focused on helping patients
identify risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and prevent the development
of serious conditions. He is board certified in Cardiac Computed Tomography
(CT), Nuclear Cardiology, and Echocardiography. With these medical backgrounds,
he is able to provide preventive cardiology, non-invasive treatments,
and insight on cardiovascular disease.
Interventional Care
Dallas Cardiovascular Center doctors provide non-invasive cardiovascular
diagnostic procedures such as electrocardiography (ECG or EKG), stress
testing, echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, vascular imaging, as well
as hospital-based cardiac catheterization, angioplasty, and stenting that
can be used for interventional care. All of this means we give patients
access to interventional cardiology techniques from some of the most talented
physicians in the area.
Electrophysiology
Dr. Viqar considers herself an electrician for your heart rhythm concerns.
Through electrophysiology, she can diagnosis and treat electrical malfunctions
of the heart. With thorough training, Dr. Viqar is equipped to use highly-advanced
techniques to restore the normal rhythm of your heart. This technically
