Same Day Cardiology

The USC Same-Day Cardiology Service, also called the Rapid Cardiology Evaluation Program, is available at the Healthcare Consultation Center II, located at 1520 San Pablo Street. This service provides same- and next-day appointments, including rapid preoperative cardiac evaluations, to patients who require urgent medical attention.

As a comprehensive cardiovascular urgent care service, the program provides necessary diagnostic testing including the following examinations:

• Cardiac catheterization
• Cardiac electrophysiology
• Cardiovascular MRI
• Comprehensive laboratory tests
• Echocardiograms
• Nuclear cardiology
• Stress tests

Referring physicians receive preliminary information on the same day as the patient visit, and final reports shortly thereafter.
