HOT SPRINGS, Ark. (Jan. 26, 2017) – In January, the CHI St. Vincent Hot Springs Cardiology Clinic officially became part of Heart Clinic Arkansas. This partnership enhances and expands cardiology services for patients in Hot Springs and the entire region.

Heart Clinic Arkansas, which became part of CHI St. Vincent in 2012, is the state’s largest network of cardiologists and subspecialists for heart-related issues. More than 40 cardiology specialists serve in 20-plus communities throughout the state.

The team of four cardiologists in Hot Springs helps patients manage a variety of conditions—from blood pressure to life-threatening heart attacks, congestive heart failure and irregular heart rhythms. They also perform lifesaving diagnostic procedures, such as cardiac catheterization, and therapeutic procedures, such as angioplasty and stent placements. Pacemaker and defibrillator implantations are performed along with various tests and procedures dealing with peripheral vascular disease.

If additional care is needed, the cardiology team can turn to their colleagues in Little Rock for complex issues, including valve replacement, advanced heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The CHI St. Vincent Heart Institute now includes hospital facilities in Little Rock, Sherwood and Hot Springs.

The clinic is located at 200 Heartcenter Lane. For more information, or to make an appointment, please call 501-625-8400.
