Stroke care runs through a Comprehensive Stroke Center holding the AHA's Stroke Gold Plus award, which leans hard on CT, CTA, and MRI.The heart surgery center pairs a cardiac catheterization lab with a structural heart and TAVR program and 3D cardiac CT, solid ground for cath-lab teams and cardiovascular sonographers.
