Today on Feminine Roadmap cardiologist Dr. J Shah busts heart health myths and empowers listeners to take charge of their own healthcare journey. Dr J encourages listeners to see their health as a life long process not an event by taking the initiative to get out of protocol driven medicine and partner with your healthcare provider. Often as patients we are looking for a quick, simple solution which can possibly lead us away from the best options for our overall health. One of the key strategies he shares is to ask question about risks, alternative treatments, additional information and even second opinions. He believes, “You are the expert on you. You understand your situation better than the doctor does in terms of how you feel, your philosophy on things.” In addition to busting heart health myths, Dr J encourages patients to be proactive in their day to day lives by managing their lifestyle choices such as eating well and regular exercise. If you or someone you know finds themselves uncertain about their healthcare journey, this episode will give you practical steps to take to gain the confidence and clarity you need to navigate it well.
