Cardiology
Cardiology is the study of the heart and its functions, diseases, and treatment. Our cardiologists conduct treadmill or stress EKG tests on a regular basis. This painless test evaluates the heart?s response to exercise. Cardiologists diagnose heart disease and problems and make treatment recommendations. These specialists also treat patients with high or low blood pressure problems and heart rhythm irregularities.
Neurology
Neurology is the speciality that is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the central nervous system and especially with regard to its structure and function.
The neurology department provides comprehensive care for diseases such as epilepsy, Parkinson?s Disease, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, stroke, chronic pain disorders, and sleep disorders. Our neurologists also treat all varieties of headaches, cervical and lumbar disease, and degenerative brain conditions such as Alzheimers.
Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT)
The ENT clinic specializes in problems and diseases of the ear, nose, and throat. Some of the procedures commonly performed here by our ENT specialists are the insertion of ear tubes, tonsillectomies, and adenoidectomies. Other procedures done here include the removal of nasal polyps, Caldwell-Luc vocal cord surgery, nasal antral windows, and septoplasty.
General Surgery
Gallbladders, hernias of all types, breast biopsies, mastectomies, gastric stapling, bowel resections, removal of cancerous skin lesions or lumps, varicose vein stripping, and appendectomies are regularly performed by our general surgeon.
Audiology
People are often referred to audiologists because of ear infections, ringing in the ears, dizziness, pain, chronic middle ear problems, or noticeable changes in their hearing ability. Others are simply interested in having their hearing tested and want to learn how they can protect their hearing. Services provided include hearing screen and more comprehensive testing, middle ear testing, and hearing aid fitting. Hearing protection and conservation information is also provided; this includes the making of custom ear plugs.
Obstetrics/Gynecology
This is the specialty that deals with the female reproductive system. Gynecologists diagnose and treat such common problems as infertility, vaginal bleeding, pelvic pains, and breast problems.
Procedures done here include hysterectomies, cystocele repairs, rectocele repairs, and laproscopic procedures.
Podiatry
Podiatry is the scientific study and care of the feet. We specialize in areas of foot care and foot surgery ranging from bunions and hammer toes to heel spurs, ingrown toenails, warts, and sports-related injuries. We also offer basic foot care services for the elderly and for patients with diabetes.
Urology
Urology is the study of the urinary tract in men and women, as well as the reproductive system.
Infections of the urinary tract affect a sizable portion of our population. They occur more commonly in women than in men. With proper diagnosis and treatment, urinary tract infections (UTIs) can be resolved quickly and without complications.
One common test done by our urologists is urinalysis, which shows which bacteria are present in the urine. Another common test is called a CYSTOSCOPY. By looking through a scope inserted through the urethra and into the bladder, the urologist can see if there are any abnormalities.
Our urologists also perform transurethral resection, also known as TURP. This surgery removes the diseased prostatic tissue while avoiding infection.
