Massena Memorial Hospital expands cardiology services

Posted

MASSENA -- Massena Memorial Hospital is expanding its cardiology services center to allow patients to visit a board certified cardiologist and receive most of the cardiology testing services conducted in one suite.

Massena Memorial Hospital celebrated the grand opening of the hospital’s new cardiology services clinic in early March with hospital and community dignitaries during a ribbon cutting by the Greater Massena Chamber of Commerce. The Cardiology Suite’s new home is located on hospital’s third floor.

It provides patients the convenience to visit Board Certified Cardiologist Aderonke Adeniyi, M.D., while also scheduling and having EKGs, echocardiograms performed all in one central location. Stress tests can be scheduled by the cardiology services staff. Stress tests and nuclear stress tests are conducted on the hospital’s main level.

Previously, patients interacted with up to four different departments, depending if they needed an EKG, echocardiogram, Holter Monitoring, stress test or to just make a follow-up.

Dr. Adeyini pointed out when people make changes to their lifestyle by eating healthier foods and adopting a light to moderate exercise plan to their daily routine they can make dramatic improvements in their lives. She stressed the importance of making sure the person consult with their doctor before starting any physical regiment.

“You can start at anytime. You can reset. You can start doing the right things by being healthy,” she said.

MMH Chief Executive Officer Bob Wolleben stressed MMH is committed to providing top quality patient care in a comfortable and convenient setting.

“By consolidating the Massena Services on the third floor of Massena Memorial Hospital we are looking to provide care for our patients in convenient way with our high quality physicians. It’s easier for the patients and it reduces confusion.” Woelleben said.
