The Heart Center of the Piedmont: Not Just in Danville Anymore

Among the many benefits the Heart Center of the Piedmont has brought to the Dan River Region is the convenience of having outstanding cardiac care close to home.

We’re pleased to extend that benefit to our neighbors in surrounding communities, thanks to our new network of Heart Center satellite offices.

When complete, satellite offices will be open in Martinsville, South Boston, and Gretna, Virginia and in Yanceyville, North Carolina. Arranging an appointment with a Heart Center cardiologist is now as simple as making a phone call.

You won’t just be seeing a physician, you’ll have a local entry point into the comprehensive services offered by the Heart Center of the Piedmont which is approximately 30 minutes from any of the four satellite offices. What looks like a single office is actually a network of care ranging from simple examinations to openheart surgery. And this network, through its affiliation with Duke University Health System, ensures that the residents of the Dan River Region have access to the most sophisticated cardiac care available.

Three cardiologists practicing at Danville Regional Medical Center (see profiles, above) will rotate to these four offices. They’ll perform an initial examination and some simple testing to determine if further treatment is warranted.

Unless your insurance company requires it, no physician referral is required before making an appointment at one of these satellite offices. Never before has such a high level of care been so easily accessible.

Or so convenient. Whether you live north, south, east, or west of Danville — or in the city itself — your heart is in the right place. At the Heart Center of the Piedmont at Danville Regional Medical Center. And at its four new satellite offices.
