The very first PCI was recently completed in the Cardiac Cath Lab at the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center.

Several years in the making, interventional cardiology services are now available through state-of-the-art equipment and highly experienced team members. This accomplishment serves as an example of VA’s purpose to provide Veterans the care they need, when and where they need it. Previously, Veterans requiring cardiac intervention needed to be transferred to neighboring hospitals for care. WPBVAHCS is now be able to provide these services under one roof, allowing for seamless treatment and recovery.

“The future of care is here and now. We are proud to be a part of it,” stated Ronald K. Williams, D.O., Chief of Staff.
