Patient Education & Helpful Links

Fortunately for today’s healthcare consumers, there is a wealth of information available for anyone willing to spend the time to read it. In fact, there is so much information, it may seem overwhelming.

For the convenience of our patients, we have researched many of the sites that offer focused and credible information. The following links will take you to information located on other sites. This will save you time with unnecessary searches that don’t always provide the information you’re looking for.

We have included information on heart conditions, treatments, and also on lifestyle information including fitness and nutrition information.

This information is not intended to serve as medical advice but rather to provide you with a broader understanding of heart health, health problems, diagnostics and treatment programs.

A good place to start for Heart information is the American Heart Association’s website, which is listed first. After that, browse through the other relevant listings and visit or bookmark those that you think will be helpful to you or your loved one.
