Heart & Vascular
Cardiac Cath Lab
Warren Memorial Hospital has expanded our cardiovascular services with the addition of a cardiac catheterization (cath) lab. Cardiac catheterization is a minimally invasive way to access blood vessels around the heart in order to capture diagnostic images and/or treat blockages.
Our cath lab in Front Royal offers patients more local access to high-quality diagnostic and interventional services. We are collaborating with highly experienced cardiologists and vascular surgeons from Valley Health's Clyde A. Smith Heart & Vascular Center at Winchester Medical Center to offer a range of outpatient services including diagnostic caths, non-surgical coronary interventions (PCI) and peripheral vascular interventions. For patients who need additional testing or interventions such as surgery, we work closely with the Winchester Medical Center Heart & Vascular team to provide coordinated care.
Other Cardiovascular Services
The availability of cardiac catheterization services is a logical extension of cardiovascular services already offered by Warren Memorial Hospital, including EKG, nuclear stress testing, echocardiograms and cardiac CT for calcium scoring. We have been a fully-accredited Chest Pain Center since 2012, earning recognition by the American College of Cardiology for our demonstrated expertise and commitment in treating patients with chest pain who may be experiencing a heart attack. We offer Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation, a medically supervised exercise and education program designed to benefit individuals who have a heart condition or lung disease.
Valley Health is committed to making specialist care more accessible in our local communities. We work in partnership with highly-experienced physicians on our Heart & Vascular team so you can see a specialist closer to home. Valley Health Warren Memorial Hospital Multispecialty Clinic in Front Royal offers cardiology services with cardiologists James Anderson, MD, Neal Gaither, MD, and Trisha Nashed, MD.
