Cardiology
Cardiology at Moberly Heart and Vascular focuses on the functions, disorders and overall health of the heart and its connected circulatory system. According to the American Heart Association, millions of Americans suffer from some form of heart disease, affecting blood flow throughout the body. Risk factors for heart disease can include obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking (or being exposed to secondhand smoke), inactivity, unhealthy diet and high blood pressure.
Taking good care of your heart health can help reduce your risk of developing cardiovascular disease that leads to a heart attack, stroke or other serious complications. Cardiac care teams provide a range of heart care services - from helping each patient create a heart-healthy lifestyle to performing potentially lifesaving procedures in emergency medical situations.
