Is there a Hospital that specializes in treating Heart Failure? If not, what r the best hospitals for H Fail? |
MY Aunt is 58 and has Heart Failure so I'm trying to find out where she can go for help. Fortunantly she has very good insurance so she can go anywhere. I know the Cleveland Clinic is good but wonder if there is a place that specialzes in HF. Thanks in advance! Heart failure is a common problem and any competent physician (especially a cardiologist) can deal with it. It is a chronic problem that will require much medication optimization over the years and thus having someone local to care for her is probably better than trying to travel very far for an opinion. All of these big hospitals function as consultative centers anyway...they will expect you to have a doctor at home to follow their recommendations and again, the heart failure management goes way beyond one visit recommendation. If you do take her places, obviously the Mayo Clinic is one of the best. St. Josephs in Atlanta is a top of the line cardiac care facility. I hope she gets well soon. St Joe in Atlanta is a great hospital. I am from Baltimore and Johns Hopkins is a great hospital period. It is one of the largest research hospitals in the world. I recommend this hospital. st johns in joplin missouri saved my life . i had dr william grahm do my heart surgery, he is the number 2 heart docter in the nation. yes |
