Emory Hospital Warner Robins
Stroke Care

Heart & Vascular Services

Emory Hospital Warner Robins’ dedicated team of cardiovascular specialists provides comprehensive care for heart and vascular conditions using advanced technology and deep clinical expertise.

Our team is available 24/7 to respond to cardiac emergencies. Using advanced technology, we quickly restore blood flow and minimize damage during heart attacks.

We also diagnose, treat and support people with heart, vascular and circulatory conditions — helping them protect their heart health and maintain their quality of life.

Services and Procedures We Offer

We diagnose and treat heart disease using advanced technology to deliver precise, effective care. Services and procedures we offer include:

  • Cardiac catheterization: Checks for blockages and evaluates how well your heart is working. In many cases, we can treat issues during the same procedure.

  • Defibrillator placement: A small device placed in the chest or abdomen that delivers electrical impulses to help control abnormal heart rhythms or restore a normal heartbeat.

  • Echocardiogram: Uses sound waves to create real-time images of your heart, helping detect problems with the heart muscle or valves.

  • Electrophysiology (EP) studies: Use thin, flexible tubes (catheters) to evaluate your heart’s electrical system and identify rhythm disorders.

  • Loop recorder: A small, wearable device that records heart rhythms over time, helping diagnose symptoms like dizziness, weakness or heart fluttering.

  • Pacemaker placement: A small device implanted in the chest to help regulate abnormal heart rhythms.

  • Peripheral angiogram: Evaluates blood flow in the legs to detect blockages. If needed, we can place a stent to restore healthy blood flow.

  • Stress test: Assesses how your heart performs during activity or with medication to detect signs of heart disease or blockages.

  • Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE): Uses a specialized probe passed down the throat to create detailed images of the heart and evaluate blood flow, often to help identify stroke risk.
