Here at Cross County Cardiology, Dr. Yaron Bareket leads the way in providing individualized care for each patient. We meticulously review their symptoms and concerns, tailoring treatments specifically to their needs. Before a patient even steps into our office, we ensure we have all the necessary background information and previous test results. This preparation allows us to focus our time with the patient on crafting a personalized treatment and diagnostic plan to maximize their care.
Understanding and Communication
Dr. Bareket believes it's crucial for patients to understand the care they are receiving. Many patients come to us with concerns about their medications and treatments, often because they didn't fully understand the care provided by previous cardiologists. Our goal is to ensure that patients not only know what their treatment entails but also why it is appropriate, the potential downsides, and the benefits.
To achieve this, Dr. Bareket uses multiple methods to explain health conditions and treatments. He draws diagrams, uses online videos, and reviews diagnostic tests together with patients. For example, he often shows patients their echocardiograms and nuclear images, explaining how the information relates to their health. This comprehensive approach helps patients feel more informed and comfortable with their care.
Family-Centered Approach
Cardiology care often involves the patient's family, especially for our elderly patients. Dr. Bareket incorporates family members in decision-making and testing processes, ensuring that cardiac care is viewed in the context of overall health. Many of our patients see multiple doctors for conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and other medical issues. We integrate our care with these treatments, providing a holistic approach to the patient's health.
Preventative Care Focus
Preventative care is now a major focus of Dr. Bareket's practice. He believes in addressing potential heart problems before they become serious. This involves using various diagnostic tests to evaluate whether patients are at risk of disease, even if they show no symptoms yet. Our treatments include lipid therapy, lifestyle changes, and adjustments to exercise and diet. We aim to prevent heart issues rather than just treat them once they occur.
Expertise and Team Approach
Dr. Bareket specializes in non-invasive cardiology, nuclear cardiology, and echocardiography. At Cross County Cardiology, we also have interventional cardiologists and experts in peripheral and carotid disease. While each patient has a primary doctor, our team approach ensures that patients benefit from the collective expertise of our entire team. Diagnostic tests are conducted by specialists, providing a comprehensive and accurate assessment.
Long-Term Relationships
One of the most rewarding aspects of Dr. Bareket's practice is the long-term relationships he builds with his patients. Recently, he treated a young man for palpitations and realized he had also cared for his parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Caring for multiple generations of a family in a holistic and compassionate manner is a highlight of his work and embodies the essence of our practice at Cross County Cardiology.
