Proactive in the fight against cardiovascular disease
Cardiovascular disease is America’s number one killer. But in many cases, it can be diagnosed and treated before symptoms occur. Iredell is proactive in the fight against cardiovascular disease by offering health screenings and programs throughout the year.
Quick diagnosis
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Quick diagnosis and treatment are critical to surviving a stroke. Iredell Memorial Hospital has the county’s first Primary Stroke Center as certified by The Joint Commission for our long-term success in improving outcomes.
Effective treatment options
We use the most sophisticated technology available that detects early signs of heart disease, thus preventing heart attacks and strokes. Our cardiac imaging technology is so sophisticated that physicians can actually watch your heart function and detect the plaque that may be ogging arteries before symptoms occur. This allows us to diagnose cardiovascular disease quickly so that we can provide effective treatment options.
The very best technology
Our state-of-the-art, digital interventional lab, complete with Angiojet for breaking clots, is the very best technology for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease.
Our mission is to return patients to a full and productive life
When heart disease strikes, our mission is to restore heart function and return our patients to a full and productive life. When a cardiac crisis arises, we have cardiac interventionalists who act quickly to treat patients with stents and balloons during the onset of a heart attack. We have a comprehensive, medicallysupervised cardiac rehabilitation and exercise program to improve heart function and help prevent future events.

Our counselors and support groups help ease the anxiety, fear and depression, which can undermine recovery.
At Iredell, we treat the whole person because heart disease affects your whole life.
