Announcing Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center

Adventist Health is announcing a new name for their premier cardiovascular program accessible in The Dalles.

Formerly known as Northwest Regional Heart & Vascular, the new name, Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center, clearly identifies this exceptional cardiac care program’s place in Oregon under the Adventist Health name. Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center provides top–tier cardiology services at their local satellite office in the Water’s Edge Medical Office – Plaza, at 551 Lone Pine Blvd in The Dalles. Cardiologists David Johnson, MD, and Theresa Dwyer, PA-C, along with our providers who join us from Portland, provide expert cardiac care, ensuring that residents of The Dalles and surrounding communities have convenient access to quality heart care close to home. Recently our associates came together for an enjoyable evening to celebrate our new name.

Headquartered in east Portland, the Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center is known for its minimally invasive surgery program, emergent treatment of chest pain, and advanced cardiac care in both interventional cardiology and electrophysiology programs. Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center offers a comprehensive network of care in the regions of the Portland metro, Yamhill Valley, Columbia Gorge, and the North Oregon coast. “This is more than a name change,” explains Kyle King, Adventist Health Oregon Service Area president. “This is a unified program that represents the size and scope of our cardiac program more accurately and effectively across our network of care.”

Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center is committed to meeting the growing demand for high-quality heart care in rural areas. “Refocusing cardiac services into one statewide service line allows us to better meet this need with coordinated care supporting patients across all our Oregon sites,” says Fawaz Alhumaid, MD, Adventist Health Northwest Heart Center medical director.
