High volume of cases, specifically in coronary intervention, has been shown to give the best success rate. Annually, the Clinic performs approximately 3500 procedures.
The use of stents after Angioplasty has increased with improvement in stent design and the new antiplatelet treatments. Currently stents are deployed in more than 95% of Angioplasty cases.
Overall results and any complications are reviewed quarterly, revealing excellent clinical results to date. At these sessions we pride ourselves on critical discussion so techniques can be continually improved. |

Leading the Way in Credentialing
You will have access to a team of cardiologists, a specialised nursing team and support staff who are committed to you achieving the best possible outcome. We work hard to attract and retain the best staff for your care.
The standard of the Eastern Heart Clinic credentialing of Cardiologists is excellent. We carefully review applicants’ skill and experience prior to delineating exactly which procedures, if any, they are able to perform in our facility after comparison to the current guidelines from the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand.
Innovators in Research and Clinical Trials
Patients benefit from our position as a respected cardiology innovator and our location and close association with a major tertiary hospital. The Cardiac Surgical team is on hand in the rare event they are needed and for consultation with those patients who are unsuitable for Angioplasty.
