Comprehensive Heart & Vascular Care — All in One Place

Welcome to Cardiovascular Services at Watsonville Community Hospital—Pajaro Valley’s center for advanced heart and vascular care.

We offer both diagnostic services and comprehensive treatments, giving you access to life-saving tools and expert care without leaving our community.

We recently opened our new cardiovascular lab with world-class technology so our interventional physicians and staff can provide you with the medical procedures you need to return to good health as soon as possible.

Whether you’re seeking answers to troubling symptoms or need a procedure to restore healthy blood flow, we’re here to help—quickly, safely, and close to home.

Our Services

Diagnostic Services

Get clear answers—fast.

Early diagnosis is critical in preventing serious heart and vascular events. We offer advanced imaging and non-invasive testing to detect conditions like coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, arrhythmias, and more — often before symptoms become severe.

Treatment Services

Leading-edge procedures, right here in your community.

Our treatment services are designed to improve blood flow, support healing, and stabilize heart rhythms — without the need for open surgery. From clearing blocked arteries to implanting pacemakers, we help patients return to life with fewer symptoms and greater peace of mind.
