GENERAL CARDIOLOGY
Dr. Ortiz has been providing heart care in Yakima for more than 20 years. He believes the best part of being a physician is the chance to make a difference in people’s lives, tackle challenges, and continue learning. His approach to cardiology is to keep trust and patient education at the center of his care.
Dr. Ortiz’s specialties include heart failure and valvular heart disease, echocardiography, and computers in medicine. Outside of providing healthcare, he most enjoys time with his family and tending to the fruit trees in his backyard.
