Heart disease remains the number one cause of death for women in the U.S. At Lehigh Valley Health Network, they're looking to change that.
The Women's Heart and Vascular Program, established more than 20 years ago, is home to the largest network of female cardiologists in the region.
Here, women can partner with women for prevention, treatment and management of a wide range of heart conditions.
Program cardiologists understand that women have unique risk factors, symptoms and treatment needs regarding heart disease. Women often are the household CEO and put their health needs last. The Women's Heart and Vascular Program at LVHN understands the challenges of balancing work and family life, and partners with patients to create and maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle.
Life events like pregnancy and menopause, or conditions like peripheral artery disease and high cholesterol, present unique heart health challenges for women. Trust the region's heart health leader for the best outcomes.
