Our patients can see their cardiologist and have access to cardiac stress testing, echocardiography, vascular sonography, labs, x-ray imaging, Cath Lab procedures, Cardiac Rehab, Heart Failure Clinic, and Rhythm Clinic all under the same roof. In addition to our two Lufkin Offices, we also maintain offices in Livingston, Jasper, Center, San Augustine, Hemphill, Crockett, Woodville and Nacogdoches.
