The staff in the Division of Cardiology understands that coping with the process of diagnosing and treating cardiovascular disease can be stressful and confusing at times. We would like to try to ease the process by providing some useful basic information about NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center to help your stay go as smoothly as possible. Please browse through the pages at the left to learn more.

In our experience, our patients often find it helpful to understand the nature of cardiology tests and treatments and to know what to expect during these procedures. Our patient guides to diagnostic tests and treatments give a step-by-step description of what you can expect from many common procedures in cardiology. We invite you to read through these guides and – most importantly – talk to your physician if you have any questions.
