Speakers include Dr. Nanette Wenger, cardiologist, Nicole Braccio from the National Patient Advocate Foundation, and two WomenHeart Champions, OBOS Today Heart Health Expert Maggie Teliska and Madalyn Adams. > We’re often told to ‘know our numbers,’ to learn our family health history and to talk to our doctor about symptoms. But what if you don’t have a cardiologist or are nervous about returning to in-person care. Speakers discussed how to be proactive in accessing care for your heart health.
