blocked blood vessel, a leaky valve,
an erratic rhythm, a weakening heart
muscle—all can cause serious heart
problems. And all need expert attention.
Whatever is hurting your heart,
specialists with Centegra Health System are

able to offer comprehensive heart care in
one location, thanks to a new, expanded
outpatient cardiac care center.
