Conveniently located near Calkins Road in Henrietta, the new office will also feature a more spacious and modern environment, drive-up access, and free parking. It will include five echo rooms, five procedure rooms, and 15 exam rooms that will enable Highland to comfortably serve 125 patients per day, with room for growth.

An entire team of physicians will be working at the new site including, John Teeters, M.D., Highland Hospital’s Chief of Cardiology; Ryan Nelson, M.D.; Jason Pacos, M.D.; Angelo Pedulla, M.D.; Rebecca Schallek, M.D.; John Schriefer, M.D.; Michael Vornovitsky, M.D., and a team of three nurse practitioners and two physician assistants.

“Opening this new facility reaffirms our commitment to patient- and family-centered care and the heart health of our community,” said Dr. Teeters. “We’re excited to continue bringing the highest quality in cardiac care to Rochester and the surrounding region.”

The former Highland Cardiology location at Highland Hospital, 1000 South Ave., will transition to inpatient cardiology and vascular services.
