A New Kind of Prevention
“The most striking feature of the current practice of medicine is that the profession developed around the treatment of disease. Very little of what physicians do is aimed at prevention, and the prevention activities in which they engage tend not to be evidence-based.”
At the Heart Attack Prevention Center, we practice a fundamentally different kind of medicine. Rather than waiting for disease to manifest as symptoms, we actively search for it using advanced imaging and comprehensive biomarker analysis.
Advanced Imaging Technology
We utilize state-of-the-art cardiovascular imaging to look directly at your arteries and heart. This includes coronary artery calcium scoring, carotid intima-media thickness testing, and advanced echocardiography. These tools give us a window into your cardiovascular system that blood tests alone cannot provide.
Comprehensive Biomarker Analysis
Beyond standard cholesterol panels, we test for advanced lipid markers, inflammatory markers, metabolic indicators, and genetic risk factors. This comprehensive approach paints a complete picture of your cardiovascular health.
Personalized Prevention Plans
Every patient is unique. Based on your imaging results and lab work, we create an individualized prevention plan that may include lifestyle modifications, nutritional guidance, targeted supplementation, and when appropriate, medication management.
