We provide a full range of cardiac diagnostic services to detect the presence of heart disease: color, stress, Doppler, and transesophageal echocardiography, performed with an Omniplane to view anatomy.

Cardiac Stress Lab

Our cardiologists use the latest innovations such as graded exercise tests, myocardial perfusion imaging and tilt table tests to assess the best heart care for an individual.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Program

Rehabilitation helps heart patients begin their recovery journey. We aim to ensure a continued state of health and well-being through:

• Education
• Regularly monitored exercise
• Risk identification.

Our patients benefit from total individual attention in planning their rehabilitation program.

In Oak Ridge, our program is housed at 200 New York Ave., in a spacious building near the hospital with ample parking.

Cardiac Catheterization Lab

MMC has two full-time cardiac catheterization labs to ensure efficient scheduling of procedures. They are available 24 hours a day for emergencies.

The labs offer intravascular ultrasound, a diagnostic tool to help determine the nature of coronary heart disease. We provide alternatives to coronary artery bypass grafting, such as rotablator, balloon angioplasty and stent placements.
