WHO WE ARE

Southern Mississippi Heart Center (SMHC) is one of the Gulf Coast’s premiere groups of cardiologists, offering the highest level of comprehensive cardiac care available. Providing excellent diagnostic imaging services to its community is something that the group takes great pride in. SMHC, which was established in 1995, has grown to include a total of five cardiologists that not only treat heart disease, but help to prevent it by educating the community.

For the past 20 years SMHC has been providing patient-centric cardiac care to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, encompassing a mix of geographic locations from cities to rural areas. There are tow clinics in the group which are located in Ocean Springs and Pascagoula.

The group offers a comprehensive cardiovascular health program with specialized medical professionals trained in nuclear cardiology, electrophysiology, prevention services, Holter Monitoring, as well as interventional cardiovascular procedures.

SMHC cardiologists work hard to promote prevention, helping patients stay on track with leading a healthy lifestyle, while ensuring that they have regular follow-up care. Like many patient populations around the country, southern Mississippi has an aging community and an increasing number of individuals with poor health who require urgent care at SMHC facilities and their affiliated hospitals.
