“Heart disease is the biggest health threat that women will face:  It is the number one killer of women in the United States.  The good news is that women’s heart disease is preventable,” said Dr. Anita Kelsey, Director of the Women’s Heart Program at the Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute.  “There are steps women can take early on to reduce the risk through assessment, exercise and nutrition,” Kelsey added.

The Women’s Heart Program is designed to help women take a proactive approach to heart disease through education and increased awareness and is free to all participants.

  1. Cardiac Risk Assessment and Risk Factor Education
    The first step is a comprehensive, 1 1/2 hour-evaluation, where a complete assessment of cardiac risk factors is examined and education is provided. 

  2. Nutritional Evaluation / Development of individualized Nutritional Goals
    A nutritionist offers the participants a nutrition evaluation and recommendations for dietary modifications.

  3. Exercise Assessment, Prescription and Program Implementation Guidelines
    A structured exercise program is outlined by an Exercise Physiologist and tailored around a woman’s personal daily routine.

Follow Up Services

As a final step in the Women’s Heart Program, your risk assessment information and recommendations will be sent to your doctor with any recommended follow-up treatment, if necessary. All medical therapies will be provided by your doctor.
