“We are excited about this opportunity and look forward to working with, and alongside, the outstanding medical staff at Coosa Valley and to expanding our services in the Sylacauga community,” said Joaquin Arciniegas, MD, senior partner with ACG. “Our goals are to make access to services more convenient for patients and to provide excellent patient care for those we serve.”
The new office will be open Monday through Friday and staffed by cardiologists Juan Bernal, MD, FACC; Hasan Guven, MD, FACC; Byron Jones, MD, FACC; David Schultz, MD, PhD; and James Taylor, MD, FACC.

“It is our pleasure to welcome the entire team of ACG to Coosa Valley Medical Center” said Glenn C. Sisk, CEO of Coosa Valley Medical Center. “This group of physicians has a long history of providing high quality, compassionate cardiovascular care to patients throughout Alabama. In particular, they have worked very effectively in other markets to allow patients the opportunity to receive care close to home and we believe this philosophy will be well-received in our community. We have been fortunate to recruit many fine physicians to CVMC over the years and the addition of ACG further advances our efforts to deliver care at the highest level.”
