Cardiovascular Health in Women

We’ve all had it drilled into our heads that heart disease is a number one cause of death. And while we talk often about the symptoms in men, the message in the media around cardiovascular symptoms in women typically boils down to: “Well, the symptoms are different in women and so it is hard to get them appropriately diagnosed or treated because ERs work off of the symptoms that men exhibit. Good luck…”

We don't hear is people talking about all the diagnostic tests we can use to help identify cardiovascular issues and risk factors in women before they have a chance to turn into a heart attack/coronary event.
