EPIC Heart & Vascular Center

What EPIC Heart & Vascular Center does

EPIC Heart & Vascular Center is a privately held, physician-led outpatient cardiology and vascular medical practice operating across three to four clinic sites in the Greater Houston metropolitan area of Texas (Houston North West, Tomball/Willowbrook, Sugar Land/Richmond, plus a referenced Energy Corridor/Eldridge location). The practice delivers comprehensive cardiovascular care spanning prevention, diagnosis, intervention, and rehabilitation, organized around three service domains: heart (diagnostics such as ECG, echocardiography, stress testing, nuclear SPECT/PET, TEE, coronary calcium scan, mobile cardiac telemetry, and Holter/event/long-term implantable rhythm recorders; and interventional procedures including coronary and peripheral angiography/angioplasty/stenting, rotational and laser atherectomy, PFO/ASD closure, TAVR, alcohol septal ablation, pericardiocentesis, cardioversion, and ICD/pacemaker implant and programming); veins (comprehensive venous ultrasound, endovenous ablation and VenaSeal occlusion, sclerotherapy); and vessels (ABI, peripheral/carotid/abdominal aortic/renal vascular ultrasound and Doppler, carotid/renal angiography and angioplasty, peripheral vascular intervention, EVAR, and catheter-directed thrombectomy). The practice also runs a 12–36 session medically supervised cardiac rehabilitation program and an extensive educational blog (2021–2026) supporting organic patient acquisition.

The business operates on a fee-for-service professional services model, billing through insurance for diagnostic testing, interventional procedures, and clinic consultations, accepting most major insurance plans including Medicare, with walk-ins welcomed and same-day appointments offered. Service is delivered directly at physical clinic locations (no third-party channel partners, resellers, or online marketplace listings); patient acquisition relies on a mix of SEO-optimized condition, procedure, and location landing pages, an organic Facebook presence, paid Google search, direct mail postcards, physical signage, and physician referrals via a published referral fax line. The lead physician, Dr. M. Usman Khan (MD, FACC, FSCAI, FACP, FASNC), is a board-certified interventional and general cardiologist with 20+ years of experience, five board certifications, 30+ peer-reviewed publications, and a Clinical Associate Professor appointment at Texas A&M College of Medicine.

Broad incumbents

• Texas Heart Institute: Renowned Houston-based cardiovascular research and treatment center offering advanced interventional procedures and diagnostics — represents the academic/tertiary end of the spectrum and a major destination for complex cases that might otherwise flow to EPIC.
• Memorial Hermann Heart & Vascular Institute: Large Houston-area hospital system's heart and vascular service line encompassing diagnostics, intervention, and surgery — a dominant regional incumbent that competes for the same cardiology patient pool and employs many community cardiologists in the same submarkets.
• UTHealth Houston Cardiology: Academic cardiology practice affiliated with McGovern Medical School in Houston, offering comprehensive cardiac diagnostics and interventions — competes for patients and referring physicians across the same Houston submarkets.
• Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center Cardiology: Cardiology service line of a leading academic medical center in Houston, with employed cardiology specialists and advanced interventional programs — competes for referrals and complex procedural volume in the same metro.
• Houston Methodist DeBakey Cardiology Associates: Established Houston cardiology program operating under a major hospital system, providing the full spectrum of cardiac diagnostics, intervention, and surgery — competes with EPIC for the same patient base but with the breadth, brand, and capital of a top-tier system.

Direct peers

• Vital Heart & Vein: Houston-area multi-location cardiology and vascular practice offering diagnostics, interventional procedures, vein care, and device implants — directly comparable in service mix, geography, and outpatient community-clinic positioning to EPIC Heart & Vascular Center.
• CLS Health Cardiology: Multi-specialty group in the Houston region with a dedicated cardiology division offering diagnostic testing and interventional procedures, serving a comparable adult cardiology patient base across multiple Houston-area locations.
• Modern Heart and Vascular: Multi-location Greater Houston cardiology and vascular practice with a similar focus on community-based interventional and preventive cardiac care, including imaging, catheterization, and vein services — overlapping patient base and service lines with EPIC.

Emerging players

• Cardiovascular Associates of America (CVAUSA): Cardiology-focused management and partnership platform aggregating independent cardiology practices — relevant comparable as a potential consolidator model for independent cardiology groups like EPIC, given the trend of PE roll-ups in the specialty.

Regional players

• Vein Clinics of America: National network specializing in vein care (varicose vein ablation, sclerotherapy) — overlaps with EPIC's vein service line as a competitor for venous-disease patients, primarily in a different geographic footprint but increasingly present in Texas.
