Dr. Nicholas Lippolis is an adult cardiology and interventional cardiology specialist in Hendersonville, TN. He attended Medical Cardiology.

"When I asked him specific questions about the medications he was prescribing me, I was basically told to shut and take my medicine. I would never go to his practice again. It was after 4 PM when I finally saw him and he was more interested in getting out of the office then addressing my concerns. His office staff was rude and unprofessional. The person that does the scheduling did not listen to his intructions because she was too busy checking her personal text messages. Why are medical office staff allowed to play on their smartphones all day? If you enjoy being treated like an idiot- then I would highly recommend you go see Dr. Lippolis. "

What is Interventional Cardiology?

Interventional cardiology is the treatment of heart disease without surgery, through the use of catheters. Primarily this is via a procedure called cardiac catheterization, where a long, thin, flexible tube, called a catheter, is threaded through a vein or artery up towards the heart. The catheter can be used to inject dye for x-rays, open narrowed artery walls, widen heart valves, place stents, or perform other tests and procedures.

Cardiology is a large specialty, and covers many diseases and disorders of the heart as well as several different kinds of treatments. What makes interventional cardiologists special is their ability to use minimally invasive procedures to treat heart disease. Interventional cardiologists may treat coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease, where blood vessels become narrowed or blocked. They also may repair or replace damaged heart valves.

During a cardiac catheterization, the interventional cardiologist inserts the catheter into a blood vessel through a small incision in the groin or arm. It is then threaded to the blocked artery or into the heart, where tiny tools can be passed through the tube. These tools are used to perform percutaneous coronary interventions, or procedures done to the heart and arteries via catheter. Procedures may include:

Angioplasty, or opening of blocked arteries, often via the inflation of a balloon
Atherectomy, the physical cutting away of plaque buildup
Stenting, the placement of metal springs to hold artery walls open
Heart valve repair or replacement
Closure of holes in the heart

That these procedures can be performed without the pain and recovery time of traditional surgery is truly amazing.
