Patient Care

Excellent care and meaningful learning opportunities

The Division of Cardiology provides primary through tertiary care to adults with cardiovascular disease in the Halifax region. As a tertiary care referral centre, we also care for Atlantic Canadians with complex cardiovascular issues. We work together with the Division of Cardiac Surgery and the Division of Vascular Surgery, Department of Surgery and Nova Scotia Health Authority to diagnose, treat and provide care to patients.

Atlantic Canadians have disproportionately high incidence and prevalence of cardiovascular disease. The resulting clinical demands necessitate patient care based on the latest research and evidence, creative thinking, flexibility and a willingness to do things differently. These are hallmarks of the Division of Cardiology. The result is excellent patient care and meaningful learning experiences for residents, students, fellows and practicing physicians.
