The Heart Center

What The Heart Center does

The Heart Center, PLLC is a privately held boutique cardiology practice headquartered at 215 Stillwater Avenue, Stamford, Connecticut, serving the greater Fairfield County area including Westport, Wilton, Greenwich, and New Canaan. Founded by Dr. Jeffrey Green, MD, FACC, who has practiced cardiology in Stamford since 2004 after training at Montefiore Medical Center, the practice operates from a single location with approximately 29 staff and offers consultative cardiology, in-office cardiac testing (EKG, echocardiography, stress testing, Holter monitoring, and sleep apnea testing), remote patient monitoring for chronic cardiovascular conditions, and medical nutritional counseling delivered by an in-house registered dietitian.

The practice's core technology stack is built around standard cardiovascular diagnostic equipment paired with the AdvancedMD patient portal for scheduling, records access, and secure messaging. Its Remote Patient Monitoring program uses pre-programmed connected devices such as scales and blood pressure monitors that transmit patient health data to the clinic, supporting chronic disease management for hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, and congestive heart failure. Service delivery occurs through both in-person office visits and telehealth/virtual consultations, with a Certificate of Need application filed to add Cardiac PET/CT capability.

Revenue is generated from insurance-billed clinical services (consultations, diagnostic testing, procedures, and preventive cardiology), Remote Patient Monitoring reimbursable by Medicare and most commercial insurers, and Medical Nutritional Counseling covered by most insurance plans. Patient acquisition relies primarily on physician referrals, supplemented by word-of-mouth and community presence in Fairfield County. The practice holds no external investment and operates as a founder-owned PLLC with no parent company, subsidiaries, or public listing.

Direct peers

• HeartPlace: HeartPlace is a large independent cardiology group practice offering consultative cardiology, cardiac imaging, and device monitoring across multiple sites. It is comparable as a multi-physician independent cardiology model that has scaled the type of services The Heart Center offers (consults, echo, stress, Holter, RPM-adjacent monitoring), representing both a competitive and aspirational peer.
• US Heart & Vascular: US Heart & Vascular is a private-equity-backed cardiology platform that partners with independent cardiology practices to scale operations, RPM, and ancillary services. It is a directly comparable cardiology-specialty model with similar service lines (consultative cardiology, diagnostics, RPM) competing for the same type of independent cardiology talent and patient populations.
• Cardiovascular Associates of America (CVAUSA): CVAUSA is a national cardiology-focused practice management and MSO platform partnering with independent cardiology groups. It is comparable to The Heart Center because it represents the alternative model — scaling independent cardiology practices — that a small boutique practice could either join or compete against for physician talent and patient referrals.
• Health Recovery Solutions (HRS): HRS is a remote patient monitoring platform that supplies connected devices and clinician dashboards for chronic disease management, including cardiac conditions. It is directly comparable to The Heart Center's RPM program because it provides the underlying technology stack for cardiovascular RPM at the very practices competing against or complementing The Heart Center.
• MDVIP: MDVIP operates a national network of concierge and personalized-medicine primary care and specialty practices. It is comparable to The Heart Center as the most visible scaled model of the boutique, patient-centered, individualized-attention practice model that The Heart Center explicitly positions itself around.

Emerging players

• Optimize Health: Optimize Health is an emerging RPM platform focused on chronic care management including cardiovascular conditions. It competes with the in-house RPM offering at The Heart Center by providing practices a turnkey, white-label alternative that could either be adopted by The Heart Center or used by competing cardiology practices in the same market.

Broad incumbents

• Privia Health: Privia Health is a national physician enablement platform supporting independent practices with technology, value-based care contracting, and population health tools. It represents a broader incumbent option that competes for the same independent cardiologists and offers an alternative scaling pathway that The Heart Center could pursue to overcome its boutique scale constraints.
• Medtronic (Cardiac Diagnostics & Services): Medtronic is a global medical device leader with connected cardiac diagnostics, remote monitoring services (e.g., CareLink), and pacemaker/ICD monitoring infrastructure used by cardiology practices. It is comparable as the broad incumbent supplier of the very remote-monitoring and cardiac-device ecosystem that The Heart Center relies on for its RPM and pacemaker/defibrillator monitoring services.

Regional players

• Yale New Haven Health (Heart & Vascular): Yale New Haven Health operates a regional Heart & Vascular program spanning Connecticut including the Fairfield County corridor. It is a competing cardiology provider in The Heart Center's geographic catchment and represents the type of consolidated, well-capitalized regional system that competes for the same referral base.
• Stamford Health (Cardiology): Stamford Health is the local hospital system in Stamford, CT with an employed cardiology service line directly serving the same Fairfield County catchment as The Heart Center. It competes for referrals through hospital-based infrastructure, employed-PCP networks, and integrated EHRs that an independent boutique practice must compete against for the same patient pool.
