Our team of Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners takes care of the majority of our patients after procedures.

Our nursing staff and radiographers include personnel who cross train from the cardiac catheterization laboratory. They are highly trained in electrophysiology and cardiac catheterization procedures. The cross training has provided new expertise, as many of the staff have a background in interventional stent and angioplasty work.

Several radiographers and nurses are RCIS-certified and participate in more complex device implants, providing us with a specific advantage of instrumenting the coronary sinus during biventricular cases with speed and low risk to the patients.
