With the rising incidence of heart disease and the decrease in access to physician services, Parkway Medical Family and Urgent Care introduces Screening Ultra Sound, a non-invasive, painless diagnostic service which can predict and prevent serious problems. Many specialists are unable to provide this service due to the overburdened work load they currently carry. Using a certified technician, we can now perform screening echo-cardiograms (ultra sound of the heart) and artery and vein evaluations.

Why are these important? People with heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and a host of other conditions can now be painlessly screened for heart and vascular problems in order to reveal potential problems before they can cause significant or catastrophic events. Patients with signs and symptoms can be screened as well in order to rule out serious problems or catch them early.

Ask one of our providers about information relating to these easy and pain-free evaluations.
