Heart screening plays an important role in assessing your heart's current health, preventing cardiovascular disease, identifying cardiac issues early on and developing appropriate treatment plans when necessary. The first step toward being as heart healthy as possible is to understand your personal risk for heart disease.
We suggest filling out the online heart risk assessment and then scheduling an appointment with your primary care doctor or a cardiologist to review. Be sure to take your completed form with you.
Either your primary care doctor or a cardiologist can conduct a heart screening. To make an appointment with Heart Center of the Rockies, click on the button to right or call us at 970.221.1000.
