Heart disease is among the leading causes of death globally, claiming millions of lives each year. It is not just one condition but a spectrum of problems affecting how your heart functions.

Coronary artery disease may occur when arteries supplying blood to the heart become narrowed. This can lead to chest pain, angina, and, ultimately, heart attacks. Other types of heart disease include arrhythmias, where your heart beats irregularly, and heart failure, where your heart weakens and struggles to pump enough blood.

The good news is that many of the risk factors for heart disease are within our control. High blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar levels, smoking, and physical inactivity can significantly affect cardiac health.

The key to keeping your heart healthy is prevention. A holistic approach, including lifestyle changes, a healthy diet, and a regulated mental state, effectively prevents heart disease from impacting your health.

Heartfelt Support for Optimal Cardiac Health

At GMCClinics, our DHA-certified cardiologists review your medical history and a detailed assessment of your physical parameters, focusing on your weight, heart function, lung health, blood pressure, and vascular condition. In addition, advanced diagnostic tests are employed to detect further clues. In some instances, our interventional cardiologists may need to perform specialized procedures like angioplasties, stenting, valvuloplasty, etc., to address cardiac defects with utmost care and precision.
