The new Sentara Heart and Vascular Center at Potomac Hospital offers residents in our community the option of receiving cardiovascular care closer to home, including interventional cardiac catheterization and other procedures to treat heart and vascular diseases.
It’s the goal of the team at the Sentara Heart and Vascular Center to provide an exceptional patient and family experience. How do we know what makes an exceptional experience? We asked the experts -- our patients. Then we listened. We incorporated their feedback into the Sentara Heart and Vascular Center.
