What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring your photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, any relevant medical records or test results, and a list of questions you'd like to ask. Arriving 15 minutes early helps us get you started on time.

How do I prepare for a heart catheterization?
You'll receive detailed instructions before your procedure. Generally, you should not eat or drink after midnight, arrange for someone to drive you home, and inform us of all medications you're taking.
Are your procedures covered by insurance?
Most medically necessary procedures are covered by insurance. Our billing team will work with your insurance company to obtain prior authorization and can provide cost estimates before your procedure.
