Understanding Heart Health
Your heart keeps your body moving, so taking care of it is essential. Heart health means knowing the risks, recognizing symptoms early and seeking care when needed. Factors like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking and lifestyle choices all influence your heart.

Diagnosis
Our specialists use a variety of tools to understand your heart health, including physical exams, reviewing your health history, blood tests, chest X-rays, electrocardiograms (EKG/ECG), echocardiograms (Echo), exercise stress tests and coronary angiography.

Treatments and Support
If you’re diagnosed with heart disease or another heart concern, TidalHealth offers treatments like angioplasty, atherectomy, stenting and tailored medical therapies. We also provide education and support to help you manage your condition and live a heart-healthy life.

Prevention and Screenings
We encourage everyone to care for their heart. Free screenings by appointment include risk assessments, cholesterol and glucose checks, blood pressure checks, BMI measurement, EKG and pulse oximetry. These are ideal for those not already seeing a cardiologist or living with heart disease. Early checks help you make informed health choices.
