 Educational
Lectures
Our lectures address many aspects of cardiovascular
health and disease. They focus on prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The
lectures are interactive and are offered to community centers, schools,
retirement communities and employers. Many people have questions regarding
their health but encounter difficulty with time constraints when visiting their
own physicians. Our lectures address this need with an extensive
question-and-answer period. Group interaction with cardiologists and primary
care physicians is provided in a town-hall type setting.

checks are offered at community centers, health fairs, senior residences and
