The Division of Cardiology provides a full array of noninvasive testing procedures for heart disease on site including state-of-the-art cardiac ultrasound.

Invasive services are performed by our cardiologists in collaboration with Mount Auburn Hospital. The Cambridge/Somerville team consists of three cardiologists with extensive experience and the ability to care for adult patients of all ages; all members are board-certified in Internal Medicine and Cardiovascular Disease and two have additional certifications in Critical Care Medicine and Geriatrics.

Non-invasive Services:

  • Stress testing
    • by treadmill, pharmacologic stimulation and using associated cardiac imaging where appropriate
  • Echocardiography services
    • trans-thoracic, trans-esophageal, with or without contrast
  • Holter monitoring
  • FAA and Canadian Civil Aviation medical examinations

Invasive Services (in conjunction with Mount Auburn Hospital):

  • Cardiac catheterization
  • Percutaneous angioplasty (PTCA)
  • Impantation and follow-up of Cardiac Pacemakers, Implantable Loop Recorders, and Cardioverter-Defibrillators (ICD)

Whidden cardiology services are provided by a variety of specialists on the Whidden medical staff. Several providers have outpatient sessions at Alliance sites in Everett and Revere.
