The cardiac and endovascular department is located at AmeriMed American Hospital in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. This department is directed by the well renowned bilingual invasive cardiologist Dr. Rafael Moguel, who trained in Barcelona, Spain. Dr. Moguel and his team perform diagnostic angiography, coronary angioplasty, and coronary artery stenting. He and his team also diagnosis and treat some of the most common cardiovalvular and congenital diseases of the heart. In the area of peripheral vascular diseases, he performs carotid artery stenting and peripheral vascular atherectomies, which in some cases, may prevent limb amputation. For Cardiac Catherization he utilizes the radial approach, instead of the femoral approach, which allows the patient early ambulation with much less possibilities of complications. The department also offers outpatient endovascular laser treatment of varicose veins and hemorroids, totally avoiding the need for any surgical procedure.
