First Visit

All pertinent medical records, including recent radiology studies or films, should be brought to the first appointment. In particular, hard copies of recent angiograms and CT scans can be essential to fully assessing the status of the condition. In coordination with the referring physician, a treatment plan is developed at the initial visit based on the medical needs of each individual patient.  

Any additional questions or concerns regarding the first visit can be directed to Julie Bumgardner, clinical coordinator for the division, at (404) 778-3022.
