About This Service

What to Expect

An echocardiogram uses sound waves to create a live, moving picture of your heart, showing your provider exactly how well your heart is pumping, how your valves are functioning, and whether there are any structural concerns to address. It's a key tool for evaluating heart health beyond what an EKG alone can show.

  • On-site heart ultrasound imaging
  • Evaluation of heart function and valve health
  • Live, moving images reviewed with your provider
  • No radiation involved
  • Helpful for shortness of breath, murmurs & heart disease monitoring
