Our Heart Disease Management program goal is to help you manage your heart disease and prevent long term complications. Heart Disease is when the arteries that supply blood to the heart become hardened and narrowed. This happens due to a buildup of material called plaque (plak). There are several factors that increase the risk of developing heart disease. Some you can change, some you can't. By managing your heart disease you can enjoy a healthier quality of life.
