Don't Just Know the Risks: Redefine Heart Health with Leading Consultant Cardiologist

Blood tests may only tell part of the story. Discover what really influences cardiovascular risk and learn how modern diagnostics, personalised treatment and lifestyle changes can help protect the heart.

Join Sulis Hospital for an informative and engaging evening exploring heart health and what blood tests don’t tell people.

Heart and circulatory diseases affect more than 8 million people across the UK and account for around a quarter of all deaths. Understanding individual risk, recognising the warning signs and knowing what steps can be taken will make a real difference to long-term health.

From blood pressure and cholesterol to lifestyle and family history, there are many factors that can influence cardiovascular health. Are routine blood tests showing the full picture?

Statins, scans, diet and atrial fibrillation: a cardiologist answers the questions patients really want to ask.

• Do you really need a statin if you have high cholesterol?
• Can modern scans reveal your risk of a heart attack or stroke?
• What does a genuinely heart-healthy diet look like?
• Can you lower your blood pressure without taking more medication?
• Can atrial fibrillation be reversed?
• Could modern technology help protect your cardiovascular future and extend your healthy years?
