At Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama, we offer advanced interventional cardiology procedures designed to treat heart and vascular conditions without the need for open surgery. Our expert cardiologists use state-of-the-art techniques to restore blood flow, reduce blockages, and improve overall cardiovascular health.

Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) and Stent Placement

Coronary angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that opens blocked arteries using a balloon and stent. It restores blood flow, reduces chest pain, and improves heart function with precision at Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama.

Drug-Eluting Stents

Drug-eluting stents release medication to prevent artery re-narrowing after angioplasty. At Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama, we use advanced stents to provide long-term relief and reduce the need for future interventions.

Atherectomy

Atherectomy removes plaque from arteries to restore blood flow in patients with severe coronary artery disease. At Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama, this procedure helps improve quality of life and reduce the risk of heart attack.

Carotid Artery Stenting

Carotid artery stenting treats carotid artery disease by placing a stent to improve blood flow and reduce stroke risk. At Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama, our skilled cardiologists perform this procedure with precision to enhance patient outcomes.

Peripheral Artery Interventions

Peripheral artery interventions treat blockages in the limbs using minimally invasive techniques like angioplasty and stenting. At Heart and Vascular Associates of Alabama, these procedures improve blood flow, alleviate pain, and help prevent complications from peripheral artery disease (PAD).
