Advanced treatment for heart rhythm disorder

Did you know that atrial fibrillation (also known as A-Fib) is the most common type of heart rhythm disorder in the country? Desert Care Network is the first hospital in the Coachella Valley to offer Stereotaxis Robotic Navigation to treat A-Fib. This advanced technology enhances the cardiologist’s ability to treat heart issues using minimally invasive techniques.

Do you think you’re a candidate for this advanced treatment? Our heart care team can diagnose the type of arrhythmia you have and determine if you're a good candidate. Schedule an assessment with a physician today by calling (800) 491-4990.

Strengthen your heart with our cardiac rehab program

Do you have a history of heart problems? You may be a good candidate for our cardiac rehabilitation program. It combines ECG-monitored exercise, education and emotional support to help you to regain self-confidence and reduce your risk for future heart events. The program provides educational classes, including a monthly nutrition class for heart patients and their family members.

This innovative program is designed for people who have experienced a heart attack, stent placement, bypass surgery, heart valve surgery, a heart transplant or the chest pain known as angina. Have you experienced these conditions? Then our rehab program is right for you. Call (800) 491-4990 to learn more.
