Cardiology is the area of medicine that is dedicated to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the heart and cardiovascular system, which includes blood vessels. Cardiovascular health is crucial for the proper functioning of the human body, as the heart is responsible for pumping oxygen-rich blood throughout the body, ensuring that organs and tissues receive the nutrients and oxygen they need to function properly. Cardiovascular diseases can include a wide variety of conditions, from coronary heart disease such as atherosclerosis and angina pectoris to heart muscle (myocardium) diseases such as cardiomyopathy and heart valve diseases such as aortic stenosis.
Clínica Lambert has at your disposal the Cardiology consultation, in which Dr. José Alves will diagnose and treat a variety of cardiovascular conditions, often using advanced technologies such as M2M echocardiograms or Cardiac Doppler Echo. Your cardiologist can also provide guidance on preventing heart disease, such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management.
