The program aims to provide personalized screening and treatment services for athletes at all levels of competition, including high school and college athletes and older athletes who participate in competitive or endurance sports. Services provided include electrophysiology, imaging and exercise physiology.
The program is run by Gregory A. Dadekian, MD, Merle L. Myerson. MD, and David C. Peritz, MD.
The team initially only provided screening and treatment services for student athletes at Dartmouth College in Hanover, N.H. The new program opens up these services to the public.
“The athletes we see in our clinic usually fall into two main groups: young, healthy athletes who need cardiovascular screening and middle-aged or older athletes who have cardiovascular symptoms, endurance concerns, or cardiovascular disease,” said Dr. Dadekian.
