When you come to us, you’ll find:

• Timely care: If you’re facing a life-threatening heart emergency, “time is tissue.” At Methodist Celina, we understand that timely care can greatly improve outcomes. With us, you receive care from a team that provides responsive treatment with advanced imaging and heart specialists available 24/7 to support your care.
• Accurate diagnosis: Highly regarded cardiologists on the medical staff take time to understand your symptoms through a comprehensive evaluation. They may use tests like nuclear medicine scans, which show how well blood flows to your heart. With this information, we determine what’s happening and how to treat it.
• Minimally invasive heart care: Services at Methodist Celina include minimally invasive tests and treatments in our cardiac catheterization (cath) lab. We carry out procedures through small incisions with help from advanced technologies. This approach enables us to pinpoint heart issues and sometimes treat them in the same procedure.
• Seamless services: Cardiologists on the medical staff at Methodist Celina work closely with your primary care provider and other specialists you may be seeing. We share information about your diagnosis, test results, and treatment plan through our electronic medical record.

Heart Conditions We Treat

We diagnose and treat a broad range of heart health issues, including:

• Coronary artery disease (CAD), buildups in the arteries supplying blood to your heart
• Atrial fibrillation (Afib) and other heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias)
• Cardiomyopathy, heart muscle disease affecting its pumping ability
• Chest pain
• Heart attack
• Myocardial ischemia, when there’s reduced blood flow to heart muscles
• Peripheral artery disease (PAD), artery narrowing that reduces blood flow to your extremities

Heart Health Services and Treatments We Offer

Whether you require emergency treatment, preventive testing, or ongoing monitoring, the caring team at Methodist Celina is here for you. Our commitment to heart health excellence helps more patients achieve outstanding outcomes.

Emergency heart services

If you experience chest pain or shortness of breath, experienced emergency medicine doctors and nurses stand ready to help. Ambulances can reach our facility in minutes. With heart imaging steps from the emergency department, you receive a prompt evaluation. We also quickly coordinate treatment to restore blood flow to your heart.

Interventional cardiology

A specially trained cardiologist on the medical staff evaluates and treats narrowed arteries with minimally invasive procedures. Using tiny instruments and real-time imaging, we detect areas of reduced blood flow and treat them by inflating a small balloon to push buildups out of the way. We may also place a tiny mesh tube (stent) in the artery to keep it open.

You may need this type of procedure to prevent future heart issues. It’s also available for cardiac emergencies, like a heart attack.

Heart imaging

Imaging is available on-site, making it easier to get the services you need. We offer echocardiograms, which use sound waves to show how well your heart is working. More advanced tests, like nuclear medicine scans, help us evaluate how well blood flows to your heart. Find out more about imaging and radiology.

General cardiology services

We often catch the early signs of heart disease and coordinate services to lower your heart attack risk. Primary care providers deliver some of these services, including checking your blood pressure and cholesterol. They also help you make heart-healthy lifestyle changes. If you need additional services, we refer you to an on-staff cardiologist for a closer look.
