Women's Heart Health
Heart disease remains the number one cause of death among women. Yet, we know that 80 percent of heart disease and strokes are preventable. Because heart disease may have different symptoms or respond to treatment differently in women than in men, we are doing research to learn more about the best ways to treat women’s heart disease. And because there’s more to your health than your heart, our cardiologists work closely with specialists across our health network to provide the highest level of care if you have heart-related issues due to pregnancy, breast cancer or other health concerns.
