According to the CDC, about 5.7 million American adults have heart failure, but cardiologists want patients to know it isn’t a death sentence. New research and treatment methods – including devices and other forms of technology – are helping patients live longer, healthier lives.
Our guests discuss the latest research, and we hear from a local heart transplant patient who shares her story. Our guests:
- Dr. Scott Feitell, M.D., cardiologist at the Sands-Constellation Heart Institute at Rochester Regional Health
- Jackie Fields, heart failure patient and heart transplant recipient
- Dr. Antonio Perez, M.D., cardiologist at the Cleveland Clinic
