Cardiovascular Screening Program
Take charge of your heart health before symptoms begin with our comprehensive cardiovascular screening program. Designed for adults ages 30 to 65 with no known heart disease, this program helps identify hidden cardiovascular risks and provides clear, personalized guidance for protecting your long-term health.
Through advanced heart and blood vessel testing, including cholesterol and inflammation screening, a coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, and vascular screening, you’ll gain a better understanding of your heart health. A cardiologist will review your results, answer your questions, and develop a personalized care plan with practical next steps. This program may be especially beneficial for individuals with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, a family history of heart disease, a history of smoking, excess weight, or other risk factors.
