The Cardiology Department's philosophy concentrates on preventative care and overall wellness maintenance. In cases of established illness, the objective is to create and maintain steady improvement. Primarily patients are consulted on risk factor issues such as weight, exercise, lifestyle, smoking, drinking or other illnesses such as diabetes. Secondary is the moderation of risk factors once heart disease has been established. DeKalb Clinic's Cardiology Department, including Dr. William Lee can evaluate, stabilize and treat cardiovascular disease - and in cases where necessary, provide timely access to acute care. Patients are completely evaluated and if necessary, referred to the best possible institution for the treatment of their individual condition. The Clinic maintains relationships with many major tertiary centers throughout the area. The average first appointment is about 1/2 hour and is generally the longest of any appointments. Regular follow-up visits are usually about 15 minutes and can be arranged within two weeks. Of course, if it is necessary to get an appointment right away - same day service is available. For your first appointment, it is helpful to bring a list of any current medications and any medical history or records. Family members and significant others are welcome to accompany patients on their visits. For more information, or to schedule an appointment with Dr. William Lee, please call (815) 758-8671 Ext. 4250. DeKalb Clinic and Rockford Cardiology Associates, LTD. are coming together for greater accessibility for our valued clients. Click Here to get to know the physcians at Rockford Cardiology. |
