Large Cardiology Clinic to Provide Care Exclusively at UnityPoint Health-St. Luke's

In a controversial move, a prominent cardiology clinic in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, will now only see patients at UnityPoint Health-St. Luke's in Cedar Rapids, according to a report in The Gazette.

UnityPoint Clinic-Cardiology, formerly Cardiologists L.C., aims to establish a center of excellence at UnityPoint Health-St. Luke's, according to the report.

The agreement, effective June 1, has angered both patients and officials at Mercy Hospital in Cedar Rapids, where the cardiologists have also provided services previously, according to the report.
