Heart Health, Reimagined with Dr. Mona Shah, MD
You passed your stress test. Your doctor said your numbers look fine. And you still don't feel sure your heart is actually okay.
That feeling is worth paying attention to.
I'm Dr. Mona Shah, triple board-certified in cardiology, holistic medicine, and coronary CT. I left a 20-year hospital career to do something conventional cardiology rarely does: look inside your arteries before anything goes wrong.

If you have a family history of heart disease, elevated cholesterol, or you've been told you're fine but you're not sure, this Podcast was made for you.
New episodes every week.
