Dr. William Condos

Being Heart Healthy and Wise

Heart disease is a broad term used to describe a range of conditions that affect your heart, and in some cases, your blood vessels. The various diseases that fall under the umbrella of heart disease include coronary artery disease; heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias); and heart defects you're born with (congenital heart defects), as well as cardiovascular issues, or conditions that involve narrowed or blocked blood vessels that can lead to a heart attack, chest pain (angina) or stroke, and infections and conditions that affect your heart's muscle, valves or beating rhythm.
