Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital showcases Heart & Vascular Center and Breast Care Center at double open house
Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital showcased its newly streamlined Heart & Vascular Center and Breast Care Center at a special double open house enjoyed by over 800 attendees.
The Heart & Vascular Center is a nationally accredited Chest Pain Center that was recently expanded to expedite care for cardiac patients. The specially designed facility boasts state-of-the-art technology and provides 24/7 interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery services. “Our team of world-class cardiologists are committed to providing you with the state-of-the-art treatment you need, as well as the respect and compassion you deserve,” said Chris Siebenaler, CEO of Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital.
The most significant feature of the Heart & Vascular Center is that in the event of a cardiac emergency, it stands ready with a team of experienced specialists, including cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, cardiac anesthesiologists and specialty-trained nursing staff. The facility’s close proximity to the emergency room ensures physicians are able to swiftly diagnose heart-attack patients and carry out the course of treatment as quickly as possible.
At the double open house, attendees had the opportunity to tour the Heart & Vascular Center’s cath lab, observation unit and hybrid operating room, with live demonstrations of technology by industry experts.
Guests also toured the Breast Care Center and learned more about the advanced technology, including Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI) and low-dose radiation tomosynthesis, also known as 3-D mammography. 3-D mammography is more accurate in detecting breast cancer than standard mammography equipment and detects 41 percent more invasive breast cancers, which leads to earlier diagnosis. The hospital is also proud to have a Breast Care Navigator on staff to help guide patients and their families through the entire care process.
