Cardiac Care Collaboration Comes to South Austin
Austin Regional Clinic South welcomes Seton Heart Institute cardiologists
October 17, 2011. Austin Regional Clinic South has expanded its services by offering cardiovascular care in collaboration with the Seton Heart Institute (SHI).
SHI cardiologists Caitlin Giesler, MD, FACC; Osvaldo Steven Gigliotti, MD, FACC, FSCAI, and Mohamad “Mo” Zeineddin, MD, FACP, FCCP, FACC, are now providing services at ARC South, 3828 South 1st Street. This represents the fourth location under the SHI-ARC collaboration, and first in South Austin, since the collaboration began in January, 2011.
Cardiac services provided include general and interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, cardiac transplants, and implantation of Ventricular Assist Devices. The three physicians see patients Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays by appointment (324-2705).
“Expanding our partnership with the Seton Heart Institute provides even more convenient access to quality cardiac care, and extension of the team approach to health care delivery, “ commented Norman Chenven, MD, ARC CEO and Founder. Mark Pirwitz, MD, FACC, president and CEO of the Seton Heart Institute, added that by bringing top quality cardiac specialists close to where patients live or receive other health care services, overall patient care is improved. Benefits of having same-office access to a Seton Heart cardiologist include speedier diagnoses and treatment.
SHI cardiologists also practice at ARC Far West Medical Tower, ARC Round Rock, and ARC Cedar Park Medical Plaza, in addition to numerous other SHI locations.
