Dr. Stephen Lewis is a board-certified cardiologist specializing in interventional cardiology. Through cardiac imaging and catheter-based procedures, he is able to open obstructed vessels to the heart to allow for proper blood flow. As a certified hypertension specialist, Dr. Lewis is uniquely trained and qualified to treat the most challenging cases of uncontrollable high blood pressure, which can otherwise put patients at risk for a stroke.
Dr. Lewis stays on the cutting edge by utilizing technologically improved products and performing minimally invasive procedures to minimize pain and speed up recovery time. By introducing the radial artery procedure into his practice—in which access to the heart’s arteries is gained by placing the catheter in the wrist as opposed to the femoral artery—patients experience less discomfort and are back to normal activities as soon as the next day.
With a holistic approach to patient care, Dr. Lewis strives to understand his patients on a personal level, from lifestyle and occupation to diet and exercise routines. Knowing a patient beyond their condition or symptoms allows him to develop custom treatment plans that align with the patient’s health goals. More than anything, Dr. Lewis seeks to empower his patients to take an active role in their treatment and recovery.
