Specialties

Dr. Joel D Carver has the following 3 specialties

Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiology
Cardiologists are doctors who specialize in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of conditions related to the heart and blood vessels.
A patient may be referred to a cardiologist if he experiences symptoms like chest pains, shortness of breath, dizziness, or high blood pressure. The physician will then evaluate your symptoms, take your health and family history and your weight. The cardiologist may order additional diagnostic tests, such as an echocardiogram, X-ray or blood tests. If necessary, the cardiologist may also call for a cardiac catheterization - a procedure in which a small tube is inserted into or near the heart that can take pictures of the heart's activity, or relieve blockage.
Once determining whether there is a heart condition, a cardiologist will treat a patient through cholesterol management, cardiac rehabilitation, and fitness. If surgical intervention is required, like open-heart surgery, a cardiologist will make that determination, but a cardiothoracic surgeon will perform the procedure.
Internal Medicine
An internist is a physician who focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions that affect the adult population—both acute and chronic.
These doctors are often who adults see as their primary physicians because they treat a broad range of illnesses that do not require surgical or specialist interventions. They also work to help a patient maintain optimal health in order to prevent the onset of disease.
In addition to treating the common cold and flu, internists also treat chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

Hard to catch.

Self-verified patient of Dr. Joel D Carver - Posted on July 13th, 2017

I used to think Dr. Carver was a wonderful, attentive doctor. However, for the past several months whenever my son has an appointment, I have to wait over an hour and then do not get to see Dr. Carver. A nurse practitioner will come in and say Dr. Carver is too busy at the moment to see your son. Will you see a nurse practitioner? I am forced to see one. My son's condition has worsened and I am thinking maybe I should switch to another doctor since Dr. Carver never seems to have the time to see my son.
