What Is a Cardiologist?
Cardiology is a specialized branch of internal medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. It addresses both acute and chronic disorders of the cardiovascular system, integrating advanced diagnostic tools and therapeutic interventions to manage patient health holistically. From common issues like high blood pressure to complex congenital abnormalities, cardiologists remain at the forefront of modern medical care.
Cardiologists have specialized training in diagnosing and treating heart and vascular conditions. Dr. Mark Meyer, MD is board-certified in cardiovascular medicine and provides comprehensive care for patients with a wide range of heart-related conditions. Cardiologists undergo extensive education, including medical school, internal medicine residency, and a multi-year cardiology fellowship, followed by subspecialty certifications when applicable.
What Does a New York Cardiologist Treat?
Dr. Mark Meyer treats a broad spectrum of cardiovascular diseases and disorders, including but not limited to:
Coronary artery disease (CAD)
Hypertension (high blood pressure)
Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)
Myocardial infarction (heart attack)
Hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol)
These conditions vary in severity and require individualized treatment strategies. At Madison Avenue Cardiovascular & Concierge Medicine, we assess patient symptoms, risk factors, and diagnostic findings to create tailored management plans.
What Are the Cardiology Diagnostic Tools?
Dr. Meyer relies on a wide range of diagnostic technologies to assess cardiovascular health. Common tools and procedures include:
Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG): Measures the heart’s electrical activity.
Echocardiogram: Uses ultrasound to create images of the heart.
Cardiac stress test: Evaluates heart function under physical exertion.
Holter monitor: Continuously records heart rhythms over 24–48 hours.
Carotid Arterial Studies: Non-invasive ultrasound to evaluate blood flow and detect narrowing or blockages in the carotid arteries.
Abdominal Aortic Screening: Ultrasound exam to detect enlargement or aneurysm of the abdominal aorta.
Lower Extremity Arterial Doppler Screening: Ultrasound test to assess blood flow and detect blockages in the leg arteries.
Lower Extremity Venous Doppler Screening: Ultrasound used to evaluate leg veins for blood clots or valve dysfunction.
Bloodwork offered in-office.
These tools allow Dr. Meyer to make accurate diagnoses and inform evidence-based treatment plans. Cardiac catheterization, and cardiac MRI and CT scans are offered when appropriate in top NYC centers Dr. Meyer works with.
What Is the Treatment Approach of a Cardiology Doctor in New York?
Management of cardiovascular disease may involve lifestyle changes, medications, procedures, or a combination of these. Dr. Meyer emphasizes a personalized approach that aligns with the latest clinical guidelines. Treatment modalities include:
Pharmacotherapy: Prescribing medications such as statins, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, anticoagulants, and diuretics.
Minimally invasive interventions: Including angioplasty and stenting for blocked arteries.
Device therapy: Implanting pacemakers or defibrillators for rhythm control.
Surgical referral and co-management: Collaborating with cardiovascular surgeons for bypass surgery or valve repair.
Preventive care is a cornerstone of Dr. Mark Meyer's practice. By identifying and addressing risk factors early—such as smoking, obesity, diabetes, sedentary lifestyle, and family history—cardiologists can often prevent the onset or progression of heart disease.
Patient education, routine monitoring, and lifestyle counseling are essential aspects of preventive cardiology. Dr. Meyer works with a wealth of top New York doctors—including dietitians, and rehabilitation specialists—to provide integrated care.
