About

For cardiovascular and internal medicine care in Chula Vista, Joel Juarez-Uribe, MD, operates a Latino-owned practice on H Street in the Broadway corridor, holding board certification in both internal medicine and cardiovascular disease. His cardiology fellowship at Emory University School of Medicine and ongoing cardiovascular practice place him within the same South Bay cardiac-care continuum as Cardiovascular Institute of San Diego, serving patients who require advanced diagnostic cardiac workups. Dr. Juarez-Uribe earned his medical degree with honors from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, completed his internal medicine residency at UT Health San Antonio, and co-founded the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Sharp Chula Vista in 1987. He served as Chief of Cardiology at Paradise Valley Hospital for ten years and as Chair of Cardiology at Sharp Chula Vista, with hospital affiliations maintained through Scripps Mercy Hospital Chula Vista for inpatient escalation. The practice's highest-acuity services include cardiac risk stratification using exercise stress testing with nuclear perfusion imaging, echocardiographic assessment of valvular pathology, and long-term anticoagulation management for patients with atrial fibrillation requiring INR-guided warfarin titration.
