Cardiology Consultative Service

Sometimes heart patients are turned down for care, because their problem is considered too complicated or untreatable. The Penn Cardiac Care Cardiovascular Consultative Service is a resource for those patients and/or physicians such as cardiologists, primary care physicians, and surgeons, who would like a first or second opinion. Our physicians are able to treat and prescribe treatment for patients and are experts in:

  • general cardiology
  • congestive heart failure
  • preventive cardiology
  • valvular heart diseases

Our cardiologists will provide patients access to the most current invasive and noninvasive treatments available, including new drugs and devices being studied in clinical research trials.

General Consultation

Penn Cardiac Care cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons see patients for evaluation and treatment at practices located on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergency, cardiac patient care.

Penn Cardiac Care physicians accept most insurance plans and are committed to following up promptly with your primary healthcare provider about your tests and condition.
