PAD is when plaque builds up in the arteries that carry blood to the legs. Receiving medical treatment before surgically treating PAD would lower a person’s risk of heart attack or stroke, said Logan Warren, a general vascular surgeon at Resolute Baptist Hospital who specializes in advanced, minimally invasive care for patients with vascular disease.
2 Methodist Hospital Northeast O cials with Methodist Hospital Northeast celebrated the grand opening of its heart and lung specialty center with a ribbon cutting May 20, according to a news release. The Methodist Heart and Lung Institute Northeast Specialty Center o ers cardiovascular care for heart failure patients. Methodist Hospital Northeast CEO Jerrica George said the center re ects the hospital’s ongoing commitment to providing quality, specialized care close to home.
3 Christus Santa Rosa Hospital-New Braunfels

A lung nodule is a small mass that shows up as a spot on the lung during a CT scan or chest X-Ray, Director of Clinical Services Morgan Meyers said. If a patient has an abnormal chest X-Ray, doctors will conduct a complete evaluation and coordinate care with various specialists, according to the hospital system’s website.
