Had it done last year at TVRH by Dr. Yelamanchi. The heart cath labs at TVRH are state of the art and while this procedure cannot be done for everyone, it is preferred because of lower risk and shortened time in recovery. I went in early in AM and went home shortly after a light lunch in recovery room.

If blockages are detected and require additional procedures you are informed about that in advance.

Like any heart related procedure you should discuss it with your cardiologist and get all of the information you need to make your decision.
