FAQ

When should I call 911 instead of scheduling a cardiology appointment?

Call 911 for possible heart-attack symptoms such as chest pressure, shortness of breath, fainting, or pain spreading to the arm, back, neck, or jaw. Routine symptoms and follow-up care can be discussed with a cardiologist.

What is cardiac rehabilitation?

Cardiac rehabilitation is a supervised program combining exercise, education, and risk-factor management after certain heart conditions or procedures. The Heart Center of Eastern Carolina lists cardiac rehabilitation among its specialties.

What does Mayo Clinic Care Network membership mean for a cardiology patient?

Carteret Health Care's membership gives its doctors access to Mayo Clinic research, diagnostic and treatment resources, and specialist knowledge; it does not mean the patient is being treated at Mayo Clinic.

What should I ask when comparing cardiologists?

Ask whether the practice treats your specific condition, offers needed testing or rehabilitation, accepts your insurance, and how quickly routine and urgent appointments are available.
