Arrhythmias
A flaw in your heart’s electrical system can cause it to beat out of rhythm. Our electrophysiologists (EPs) can find what’s causing the problem and recommend the right treatment for atrial fibrillation (A-fib) and other forms of arrhythmia. Medication can reset your heart to a steady beat, but if you need additional treatment, our doctors offer a full range of therapeutic options. That includes implanting medical devices to regulate the heart and minimally invasive procedures that use either heat (radiofrequency) or cold energy (cryoablation) to treat abnormal heart tissue and restore a healthy rhythm.
Heart Attack
If you or a loved one develop symptoms of heart attack, you’re in good hands at Riverside’s nationally certified Chest Pain Center. Our top-ranked team of emergency physicians and specialists deliver the most rapid diagnosis and comprehensive treatment of heart attacks in the region. We offer three advanced cardiac catheterization labs for performing angioplasty (which uses tiny balloons to open blocked coronary arteries) and stenting (insertion of mesh tubes to keep vessels open and improve blood flow).

Heart Failure
If your heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet your body’s needs, prompt treatment is essential. Our award-winning Heart Failure Clinic is staffed by specially trained cardiac nurses who can recommend the most up-to-date treatments and options for care. If medication and lifestyle changes are unable to manage your symptoms, our cardiac specialists offer surgical solutions or implant devices to keep your heart working in top order.

Valve Disease
Valve defects alter the flow of blood in and out of the heart. Without treatment, this condition poses a major health threat. Our team of experts was among the first in the nation to perform robotic-assisted open-heart surgery, often allowing for better precision with less incision. We now offer this option to patients who require repair of the mitral valve, which regulates blood flow into the heart’s main pumping chamber. We also perform other minimally invasive procedures to repair defective heart valves.

Vascular Disease
Poor circulation brought on by blood vessel disease can cause pain and other symptoms, and even lead to loss of a limb if left untreated. Our team of highly skilled cardiovascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, podiatrists and more specialists use advanced diagnostic tools and state-of-the-art technology to deliver care unlike any other in the region.
