What Makes Bay Area Heart Different?

  • Same-Day and Urgent Appointments: We understand that symptoms and clinical needs don’t follow a schedule. That’s why we offer same-day and urgent add-on consultations whenever possible.

  • Team-Based Access: With four providers available in-office each day, we’re able to meet the needs of both patients and referring physicians—promptly, professionally, and with the personalized attention every patient deserves.
