Chest Pain
Chest discomfort can come from the heart, lungs, esophagus, muscles, or nerves. New or severe symptoms require emergency evaluation.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
Heart failure does not mean the heart has stopped. It means the heart cannot fill or pump well enough to meet the body’s needs.
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
Coronary artery disease can cause chest pressure, shortness of breath, or no symptoms at all. Learn how it is evaluated and treated.
Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction)
A heart attack is an emergency. Learn the warning signs, when to call 911, and what follow-up care may involve after hospital treatment.
Heart Valve Disease
Valve narrowing or leakage can make the heart work harder. Echocardiography helps define severity and the right timing for treatment.
Hyperlipidemia (High Cholesterol)
High cholesterol is silent, but it contributes to plaque in heart, brain, and leg arteries. Treatment should match a person’s total risk.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
High blood pressure is usually silent. Accurate home and office readings help confirm the problem and guide treatment.
