MEET OUR MHG PHYSICIAN EXTENDERS, AN EXTENSION OF YOUR HEART CARE TEAM! THIS MONTH WE RECOGNIZE HOWARD HOLLINGER

Beaumont Michigan Heart Group would like to introduce you to our physician extenders.  They are a critical part of the Cardiology team at Michigan Heart Group.  The Physician Extenders work hand and hand with the physicians, making decisions on the best treatment options for each patient on a case by case basis.  All of our extenders round on the weekends as well as work in the hospital during the week.  Most of our extenders also have office hours and we encourage our patients to feel comfortable following up with them in the office.  Our medical decisions are often a team approach that each extender is a part of and they are often at the forefront of each decision that is made.

The practice is made up of Interventionist (plumbers) and Electrophysiologist (electricians).  The plumbers are located at 4600 Investment Drive, #200, while the Electricians are in the building next door at 4550 Investment Dr., #250.  In addition Michigan Heart Group has two satellite offices to accommodate our out of town patients.  One in Macomb at 15959 Hall Road, #304, Macomb and another in Novi at Ten Mile and Haggerty, 39500 Ten Mile, #103, Novi. Each extender is trained and familiar with both specialties.

Each month we will be focusing on one extenders achievements, this month we recognize Howard Hollinger.

Howard Hollinger, P.A.-C.:  Howard joined the group in February 2000, almost a decade after the practice was founded.  Howard received his Master of Science with the Physician's Assistant Program at Western Michigan.  He is certified by the American Academy of Physician's Assistants and licensed by the State of Michigan.  You will find Howard in the office all day on Monday and Tuesday he has office hours at our main office 4600 Investment Drive.  Howard is our only extender that sees patients at a satellite office, seeing patients Wednesday afternoons with Dr. Gallagher at Macomb.  When he's not in the office Howard is rounding at Troy Beaumont hospital.  You can schedule any type of appointment with Howard, weather you need to be seen emergently or it’s a routine visit, rest assured you are in great hands.  Many of our patients refer to him as Dr. Hollinger, Dr. H or Dr. Howard.
