WellStar communities have never been so well served in the fight against heart disease than now. The major sources of cardiac care are physicians’ offices, urgent care centers and emergency rooms. Fortunately, WellStar is a community-based health system that covers all those bases and many more.
Emergency departments at WellStar Cobb, WellStar Douglas, WellStar Kennestone, and WellStar Paulding hospitals provide comprehensive cardiac services. WellStar Cobb and WellStar Kennestone hospital’s cardiac diagnostic and treatment services provide the next level of defense against heart disease. The technologically advanced Cardiac Center at WellStar Kennestone Hospital and partnership with Emory Healthcare for adult open-heart surgery raises the bar on world-class cardiac care.
Our goal is for heart disease to be prevented, diagnosed, treated, and rehabilitated close to home with the people, tools and outcomes that truly are world class. A focus on whole-person care requires what we call “cardiac continuity” – a cardiac circle of care.
