ABOUT US

Athletic Heart comprises a team of elite cardiologists, sonographers, physiologists and data analysts specializing in sports cardiology.

Our customized Athletic Heart protocols redefine preventative cardiac care and were originally developed exclusively for athletes, guided by collaborative research and a growing athlete database that has set the benchmark for cardiovascular testing in sports.

The program has since been expanded to serve former athletes, coaches, military personnel, and corporate wellness initiatives, thanks to its streamlined, high-quality approach.

The state-of-the-art point-of-care testing provides a turnkey solution for organizations, enabling convenient, on-site preventative cardiac care.

Through shared decision-making with team physicians, we deliver tailored cardiac assessments that fit any organization’s needs and budget. Our secure, cloud-based interface allows for rapid results, same-day clearance, and seamless integration with your EMR.

Athletic Heart consistently provides a unique, reliable, and effective service—supporting athletes, medical teams, and organizations with precision and expertise.

OUR CAPABILITIES

SINCE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ATHLETIC HEART RESEARCH INSTITUTE IN 2005, OUR FOCUS HAS BEEN ON THE PROVISION OF ACCURATE, INCLUSIVE AND RELIABLE EVALUATIONS OF AN ATHLETE’S CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH.

It is Athletic Heart’s intention to provide reliable data and educated insight to members of the medical community, athletic trainers, coaches, and athletes as to the necessity of cardiovascular testing that supersedes the basic or rudimentary evaluations currently in place for our athletes. Here are some of the testing services we offer.

RESEARCH & ANALYSIS

Meet the Team

“Over the last several years, the folks at Athletic Heart have conducted the echocardiograms on our student-athletes. The customer service and scheduling have been outstanding and the technicians that come to our campus are top-notch professionals. Working with our physicians in having the tests read has been invaluable. If there was ever an issue with a student’s result it’s reassuring to know our doctors are in the loop from the very beginning. I’m looking forward to continuing our relationship for many years to come.”
