Let the Heart Attack Prevention Clinic determine if you are in the so called, "danger zone" for cardiovascular disease. The Clinic's Medical Director Bradley F. Bale, MD, explains: "We can identify who is in the 'heart attack zone' and then figure out how to kick them out of it."

Coronary artery disease is an inflammatory condition that essentially sets your arteries "on fire." The Heart Attack Prevention Clinic will identify your risks and help you discover how to put that fire out.

Our providers pay close attention to assessing and testing for a pre-diabetic state, which is known as "insulin resistance." We also utilize coronary artery imaging (IMT) to detect the early stages of coronary artery disease. Advanced lipid testing (which includes the apo E genotyping test) allows for a closer look at inherited risk factors for heart disease.

With aggressive risk assessment employing not only traditional testing, but also cutting edge techniques, virtually everyone who has increased risk for heart attack can be identified. At the Heart Attack Prevention Clinic we go beyond the "standard of care." Our staff will identify your risk and present a treatment and lifestyle plan designed to keep you out of the "heart attack zone."

The Heart Attack Prevention Clinic is intended for those who want to take a proactive approach to their healthcare, and for those who are willing to invest not only in their personal future, but also in their family's well-being.
