Our second Wesley Chapel location is now open! It will not only provide cardiovascular appointments but will also be an Office-Based Lab (OBL). That means our experienced providers can perform vein and vascular procedures right here in-office for your convenience, including ablations, phlebectomies, sclerotherapy, and in the near future, angiograms and venograms.

Our current providers for this location are: Dr. Sunil Gupta, Interventional Cardiologist, Dr. Seth T. Purcell, Vascular Surgeon, and Emma Zak, APRN.

The address is 2615 Windguard Circle, Unit 101 — just down the street from our main Wesley Chapel office. We look forward to welcoming our patients!

Meet Dr. Seth T. Purcell, board-certified vascular surgeon: “When I was younger, I used to read the trauma care books that my dad – an EMT- and my mom, who also worked in healthcare, would bring home. This sparked my interest in becoming a surgeon. I’m passionate about vascular surgery because it allows me to make a direct, immediate impact on patients' lives—from head to toe. I take a hands-on approach to care and prioritize being accessible to my patients. It’s important to me that they fully understand the risks, benefits, and goals of every procedure.” Dr. Purcell is seeing new and current patients at our Wesley Chapel and North Lakeland offices. He joined Premier Heart and Vascular Center in August 2025, bringing nearly a decade of vascular surgery experience. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Purcell to the PHVC team!

Why get a Coronary Artery Calcium Score Test?
🫀 You may feel fine—but your arteries could tell a different story.
A coronary artery calcium (CAC) test is a quick, painless CT scan of the heart that measures the amount of calcium in the heart’s arteries —a major warning sign of heart disease.
🔍 Why it matters:
• Detects early signs of heart disease—often before symptoms start
• Helps predict your risk of a heart attack
• Can guide treatment to prevent future problems
🕒 It takes about 10 minutes and no prep is needed.
💡 It’s especially helpful if you’re 40+ with risk factors like high cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, or family history.
❤️ Don’t wait for chest pain to take care of your heart. Ask your provider about taking a calcium score test, now offered at our Wesley Chapel office.
