Medical Weight Loss
Visits are like a typical doctor appointment, but will be focused on your and your physician’s areas of concern. For some patients, that will mean a focus on options for weight loss. For others, it may be testing to see why your heart disease developed early, and whether family members should be tested for certain conditions. Patients who have heart and kidney diseases may be looking for treatment options to help protect the heart and kidneys as much as possible. We will focus the visit on you and your physician’s priorities.

Medical Weight Loss
Visits are like a typical doctor appointment, but will be focused on your and your physician’s areas of concern. For some patients, that will mean a focus on options for weight loss.

Primary Care
Please be advised If your insurance requires a co-pay and/or a referral to see a specialist you must have them present at time of your visit. Referrals should be obtained from your Primary Care Physician before you can be seen. Appointments will be rescheduled if required referrals or co-pays are not available at the time of your visit.
Smoking Cessation
High Cholesterol
Emergency Care
Medications used to control the ventricular rate during atrial fibrillation include b-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and less commonly digoxin. These medications can be administered orally on a routine outpatient basis, or via intravenous route if necessary in the emergency room. Some patients may need a combination of medications from different classes. Patients may experience alleviation of symptoms due to slowing of the ventricular response (heart rate) with the use of b-blockers or calcium-channel blockers that delay electrical conduction through the AV node.
Flu Shots
Electrocardiogram
Avoid the use of oils, body lotions, moisturizing soaps or body washes for 3 days prior to testing. These products may affect the quality of your EKG tracings. Examples of these are “Oil of Olay” “Dove” “Ivory” “Caress” or “Aveeno”.
Pneumonia
Immunizations
Vaccines: Ask your caregiver if you should get vaccinated against the flu or pneumonia. The best time to get a flu shot is in October or November. Flu shots are good for one year. Pneumonia shots are good for five to six years. Ask your caregiver which vaccinations are right for you.

Kidney Stones
Hamilton Cardiology Associates is pleased to announce that Drs. Edward Wingfield and Justin Fox successfully performed the first SHOCKWAVE coronary lithoplasty procedure in Mercer County at St. Francis Medical Center on August 4, 2021. The SHOCKWAVE device uses ultrasonic pressure waves to disrupt and modify plaque in coronary arteries that have a large amount of calcium, allowing interventional cardiologists to more effectively treat difficult blockages. The device is used during a cardiac catheterization procedure and typically a stent is also placed to prevent the blockage from re-occurring. The SHOCKWAVE technology has been used for decades in the treatment of kidney stones and more recently has been FDA approved for use in the peripheral, and now, coronary arteries.
Endoscopy
Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a procedure (similar to an Endoscopy) that uses a special ultrasound probe to take better-quality images of your heart. TEE takes more detailed pictures of your heart and the aorta and is used when the doctors need more detail than a standard echocardiogram can give them.

Mental Health
Hamilton Cardiology Associates is committed to ensuring the rights of our patients to privacy. This Notice of Privacy Practices describes how we may use and disclose your protected health information (PHI) to carry out treatment, payment or health care operations and for other purposes that are permitted or required by law. It also describes your rights to access and control your PHI. PHI includes all information concerning your physical or mental health, the healthcare treatment you receive and the payment for your healthcare treatment. PHI includes all individually identifiable health information including your identity, address, age, social security number, the reason you are being seen, the treatments and medications you receive, and your entire medical history. Hamilton Cardiology Associates will take the necessary steps to ensure that business associates receiving your PHI, such as billing companies also adhere to the privacy standards of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Hamilton Cardiology Associates is required to provide you with notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to PHI and to abide by the terms of this Notice of Privacy Practices. We may change the terms of our Notice of Privacy Practices at any time. Any new Notice of Privacy Practices will be effective for all PHI that we maintain at that time. We will provide you with a copy of the revised Notice of Privacy Practices sending a copy to you in the mail upon request or providing one to you at your next appointment.

Ultrasound
An exercise stress echocardiogram (Stress ECHO) is designed to assess how your heart, lungs and blood vessels respond to increasing workload (exercise). The purpose of this test is to compare the ultrasound images of your heart before and after it is stressed. It can help provide information about the level to which you can exercise if there are any problems affecting your ability to exercise, and how your condition changes with exercise. The echocardiogram images help your cardiologist determine whether there are any major blockages in your arteries. They can also see if there has been damage to the heart muscle after a heart attack. It will also help them determine the best type of treatment you may need to correct any abnormal finding.
MRI
Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI) uses a powerful magnet to produce images of internal organs and functions. Metal objects are attracted to the magnet and are normally not allowed near MRI machines. The magnet can interrupt the pacing and inhibit the output of pacemakers. If MRI must be done, the pacemaker output in some models can be reprogrammed. Discuss with your doctor the possible risks and benefits before you undergo MRI scanning. Newer pacemakers are now MRI compatible, but the MRI must be performed at a center that is certified in treating patients with pacemakers.
X-Rays
Nuclear Medicine
A Nuclear Medicine Thallium Viability Scan is a test used to evaluate the blood flow to the heart. After a heart attack (myocardial infarction), some of the heart muscle may be permanently damaged or scarred. Once this occurs, the area affected will cease to function properly. Other parts of the heart may be injured, but not permanently scarred. These areas may be “hibernating”, and may not be detectable through traditional imaging studies, such as an echocardiogram. These damaged areas of the heart may still be alive or “viable”, but may not have completely recovered. As a result, the heart may temporarily function at a much-reduced level. Your doctor may want to identify these “hibernating” areas because restoring blood flow to that area of the heart may restore proper function and prevent permanent damage from occurring.
Computed Tomography
Because the injected medications contain only a minimal amount of the carrier drug, there are no significant side effects. The radioactive tracer used during the Tc99m PYP/HDP scan is a diagnostic dose of radiation that is similar to the dose you would receive during a CT scan.
Chemotherapy
During chemotherapy for cancer, to monitor the ventricles’ pumping strength (some cancer drugs can be harmful to the heart muscle)

Lesions
TEE is often used to provide information during surgery to repair heart valves, a tear in the aorta or congenital heart lesions. It’s also used during surgical treatment for endocarditis, a bacterial infection of the inner lining of the heart and valves.
