Cardiac disease is and is expected to remain the number one cause of death in industrialized nations for both men and women.
We at Lakewood Cardiovascular Consultants feel confident in taking care of patients with established and complex cardiovascular disease, also recognizing the importance of preventive care in those with risk factors for the heart (hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes mellitus, tobacco use, the obese and those with family history of vascular disease or established vascular disease such as stroke, aneurysm or circulation problems in the extremities). The future is upon us and now we have at our fingertips simple chemistry tests that can hint of cardiac and vascular disorders. This allows early management of risk factors and aggressive lifestyle modification.
