Cardiac Catheterization

Whether you come in with a cardiac emergency requiring a heart cath procedure or for a scheduled balloon angioplasty to open a blocked artery, you can count on the quality, expertise and caring of the heart catheterization specialists at Baptist Health System's growing number of hospitals in the San Antonio area.

When seconds count.

At Baptist’s cath labs, our highly trained specialists diagnose and treat your heart using the most up-to-date cardiac catheterization procedures. We treat more than hearts, we treat people. Using the latest treatments and treating the whole person is our main goal. That’s Baptist Care.

Quicker, better medical response means less damage to your heart. With Cardiac Cath Labs incorporated into the Accredited Chest Pain Centers at all Baptist hospitals, we’re close to home and close to work.

We are proud of Baptist's doctors, nurses, staff, and Emergency Medical Services crews for their efforts in getting our heart attack patients into the cath lab for treatment. Primary PCI is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, ensuring that patients in Bexar County and surrounding communities have constant access to a variety of comprehensive treatment options.
