About St. Bernards Heart & Vascular

Our vascular surgeons and cardiologists at St. Bernards Heart and Vascular - Jonesboro offer all aspects of cardiac care in Arkansas. Our Jonesboro cardiologists are extensively trained in both the invasive and the noninvasive areas of cardiac care. Because each of our heart doctors and vascular surgeons in Arkansas is an expert in his or her particular heart care area, you may have an occasion to have both of these groups involved in your care. The noninvasive Cardiologist is specially trained in echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, stress testing, carotid and vascular imaging, preventive cardiac care, risk factor identification and modification, research participation, as well as levels of acute care. The invasive Cardiologist is trained in the areas of cardiac cath balloon angioplasty, atherectomy, pacemaker insertion, preventive cardiac care, risk factor modification, research participation, as well as all areas of acute cardiac care.

St. Bernards Heart & Vascular has received the Mission: Lifeline® Receiving Center GOLD PLUS Quality Achievement Award for treatment of patients who suffer severe heart attacks and is the only hospital in Arkansas that has earned the American Heart Association Mission: Lifeline® Receiving Center GOLD PLUS Level Recognition Award. And it is the first hospital in the state ever to receive that recognition for two consecutive years.
