Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to see a cardiologist at Memorial?

In many cases, you do not need a referral to schedule an appointment with one of our cardiac or vascular specialists. However, some insurance plans may require one from your primary care physician. We recommend contacting our team directly and we will help guide you through the process and connect you with the right specialist from the very start.

What is a heart risk assessment and why should I take one?

A heart risk assessment is a simple, non-invasive tool that evaluates your personal risk factors for developing heart disease. It takes just a few minutes to complete and provides valuable insight into your heart health based on factors like age, blood pressure, cholesterol, family history, and lifestyle habits. It is one of the most proactive steps you can take toward protecting your long-term heart health and a great starting point for a conversation with one of our specialists.

What is the difference between a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon?

A cardiologist is a physician who specializes in diagnosing and treating heart and vascular conditions using medications, lifestyle guidance, and non-surgical procedures. A cardiac surgeon specializes in performing surgical procedures on the heart and surrounding structures. At Memorial, our cardiologists and cardiac surgeons work closely together as part of a multidisciplinary team to ensure you receive the most appropriate and effective care for your unique condition.

Does Memorial offer minimally invasive cardiac procedures?

Yes. Memorial's cardiac and vascular specialists are experienced in a wide range of minimally invasive procedures designed to treat complex conditions with smaller incisions, reduced recovery times, and less discomfort. These include transcatheter valve procedures, endovascular treatments, catheter-based interventions, and more. Your care team will discuss all available options and recommend the approach best suited to your condition and overall health.

What is the difference between vascular surgery and cardiac surgery?
Cardiac surgery focuses on the heart and its surrounding structures, including procedures such as bypass surgery, valve repair or replacement, and heart transplantation. Vascular surgery addresses conditions affecting the blood vessels outside of the heart, including the arteries and veins in the legs, abdomen, and neck. At Memorial, our cardiac and vascular surgeons often collaborate on complex cases to ensure you receive the most comprehensive and coordinated care possible.
What makes Memorial different from other cardiac care programs in South Florida?

At Memorial, exceptional cardiac care goes far beyond diagnosis and treatment. Our nationally recognized program offers the full spectrum of heart and vascular services, from advanced imaging, minimally invasive procedures, and complex surgery to heart transplantation and electrophysiology. But what truly sets us apart is our commitment to your long-term wellbeing. Through our cardiac rehabilitation and medical fitness programs, we support your recovery and help you build a stronger, healthier heart for the road ahead. Community-centered, compassionate, and close to home, we treat every patient as a whole person, not just a condition.

The art of science. The heart of care.
