Medical Weight Loss
CardioSmart is an educational site created by the American College of Cardiology. This unbiased, ad-free resource provides videos describing common diagnoses and frequent treatments, details on upcoming community events and personalized support for smoking cessation, weight management and other facets of cardiac disease prevention and management.
Primary Care
As a specialist practice, we are not always the appropriate provider to complete forms such as Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and disability forms. In many circumstances, your primary care provider may be a better fit. Prior approval from your physician is required before a form is submitted to our office. We welcome phone calls to clarify this policy.

Electrocardiogram
An Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is also a hole in the heart between the right and left chambers of the heart, or atria. Unlike PFO, ASD is considered congenital as it began before birth. The cause is not known, but genetics may be a factor. While a large ASD will likely be identified and treated early in life, small ASD may not be diagnosed or require treatment. Diagnosis typically involves testing, including electrocardiograms and echocardiograms. Where there is significant blood flow through the defect, referred to as shunting, or the right side of your heart is bigger than normal, treatment is recommended. Many ASD may be closed with a medical device brought to the opening on a cardiac catheter to plug the hole. In other situations, surgery may be needed. Both surgery and catheterization require careful follow up with your cardiologist.

Internal Medicine
Megan Worth, PA-C is originally from Santa Cruz and moved to San Luis Obispo to attend undergraduate university at Cal Poly. Following graduation, she hiked the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada with her now husband, before moving to Idaho to attended the Idaho State University Physician Assistant Masters Program. After graduation she worked as a Hospitalist at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center where she practiced internal medicine for four years. During that time she took an interest in Cardiology and eventually her and her family decided to relocate back to the Central Coast and she was excited to join the Coastal Cardiology team in 2021. Her hobbies include hiking, mountain biking, and camping.

Ultrasound
The echocardiogram uses ultrasound, or high-frequency sound waves, to create real-time, moving images of the heart. It is not painful, does not use radiation, and has few known risks.
