Cardiology is quite literally the heart of the Heart & Vascular Program at Southcoast Health. Our cardiologists will assess your heart health and provide you with the tools necessary for prevention and management of heart disease, including lifestyle, medical and technological advances.
Your primary care physician will ask you to see a cardiologist if you are experiencing symptoms, such as:
Know Your Risk Factors
Eat Healthy
Eat a well-balanced diet consisting of rich fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins. Limit saturated, trans fats, processed sugar and salt will help lower your cholesterol and blood pressure.
Exercise Regularly
Exercising regularly for at least 30 minutes a day is crucial to maintaining a healthy heart. Regular exercise helps to improve blood flow, maintain a healthy weight and lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
Monitor Your Blood Pressure and Cholesterol
Keeping up with your regular check-ups with your healthcare provider can help monitor your blood pressure and cholesterol over time. This allows you to stay on top of your heart health and catch any issues early.
