They understand the special needs and concerns of their female patients. Our physicians are sensitive to women's questions about cholesterol, diet, weight loss, pregnancy, hormones, aging, and their effects on the heart. They provide the educational instruction that specifically applies to women of all ages. Our Physicians are women, mothers, daughters, wives and women with careers. And they understand the demands and stress that today's women face.
Nobody has ever measured, even poets, how much the heart can hold.
The Women's Heart Center is open to all female patients. You may need a referral from your primary care physician according to your insurance plan. A comprehensive history and risk assessment as well as physical exam will be performed initially. The Women's Heart Center provides a full range of preventive services with our lipid clinic, dietician consults, and weight reduction counseling. Then, if indicated, further cardiac testing may be recommended.
