Your care team will include:

  • A board-certified cardiologist
  • A dietitian who specializes in heart health
  • An exercise physiologist 

Your team will discuss your risk factors with you, and they’ll perform a thorough heart risk assessment. They’ll work with you and each other to:

  • Develop your personalized prevention plan
  • Guide you through each step of your plan
