Interventional Cardiology at UVM Health
Interventional cardiology specializes in minimally invasive procedures — such as cardiac catheterization, angioplasty, stenting and structural heart procedures — to diagnose and treat heart diseases.
At University of Vermont Health, our team of expert interventional cardiologists have a long history of providing cutting-edge, life-saving care to patients with coronary, vascular and structural heart conditions. We personalize our care approach to your needs so that you receive individualized, effective treatment no matter where you live in Vermont and northern New York.
