Dr. Alaeddin Ayyad has joined Dignity Health Medical Group – North State in the Redding office as an Interventional Cardiologist. “Being an interventional cardiologist allows me to treat patients with medication, diagnosing cardiac issues, from chest pain to arrhythmias and even heart failure. We can also use methods such as catheterization, stenting and more. We’re even starting to think about doing valve procedures without having to open the chest,” said Dr. Ayyad.

Dignity Health Medical Foundation (DHMF), which operates 14 medical groups and imaging centers and more than 124 clinic locations across California, has announced that Mark Behl, MHA, MBA, has joined the organization as CEO.
