              A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Sherali Gowani provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

              • Cardiomegaly: Cardiomegaly, an enlarged heart, emphasizes the importance of proactive cardiovascular health, as its development often signals underlying issues that require prompt attention to prevent serious consequences.
              • Mitral Valve Disease: Managing risk factors like high blood pressure and heart infections can help prevent or slow the progression of mitral valve disease.
              • Lipid Disorders: Regular check-ups to monitor your lipid levels can help identify and address any imbalances early on, preventing future heart problems.
              • Tricuspid Valve Disease: Tricuspid valve disease, if detected early and managed properly, can prevent serious complications like heart failure and irregular heartbeat, improving your long-term heart health.
              • Angina: Managing angina effectively through medication and lifestyle modifications is key to preventing more severe heart issues like heart attacks and strokes.
              • Rheumatic Tricuspid Disease: Managing rheumatic tricuspid disease effectively involves regular monitoring and often medication to control symptoms and prevent the disease from progressing, thereby ensuring a better quality of life.
              • Supraventricular Tachycardia: Experiencing a rapid heartbeat? Supraventricular tachycardia might be the cause, and understanding your risk factors helps you take proactive steps to prevent future episodes and protect your heart health.
              • Chronic Congestive Heart Failure: Chronic congestive heart failure, a serious condition, can be better managed through lifestyle changes and medication, thereby improving your heart's function and quality of life.
              • Arrhythmias: Preventing future heart complications starts with understanding arrhythmias—irregular heart rhythms that, when addressed, significantly reduce your risk of serious cardiovascular events.
              • Mitral and Aortic Valve Disorder: Managing mitral and aortic valve disorders through medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery helps reduce your risk of life-threatening complications.
              • Acute Congestive Heart Failure: Preventing heart disease through lifestyle changes and regular checkups can significantly reduce your risk of experiencing acute congestive heart failure, a life-threatening event.
              • First Degree Heart Block: Early detection of first-degree heart block allows for proactive lifestyle changes and monitoring to prevent potentially dangerous complications later in life.

              This list highlights some common health concerns and is for informational purposes only. The best way to understand your personal health and create a prevention plan is to schedule a consultation.

              Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. Sherali Gowani offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

              • Cardioversion: Cardioversion is a procedure that uses electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rhythm, helping prevent strokes and other complications from irregular heartbeats.
              • Impella Device: To support your heart during major surgery, an Impella device can provide temporary assistance to ensure a successful procedure and faster recovery.
              • Cardiac Catheterization (incl. Coronary Angiography): As a proactive step in managing your heart health, a cardiac catheterization provides detailed images of your heart's blood vessels, helping detect and treat issues that could lead to heart attack or stroke.
              • Cardiac Myocardial Perfusion Imaging: This imaging test helps doctors pinpoint areas of reduced blood flow to your heart, allowing for timely intervention and prevention of serious complications like heart attacks and strokes, making it a crucial step in proactive heart care.
              • Cardiac Catheterization with Robotic Assist: To proactively safeguard your heart health, this advanced procedure uses robotic assistance for a precise examination of your heart's arteries, helping identify and address potential problems before they become serious.
              • Cardiac Ultrasound: A cardiac ultrasound is a simple yet powerful tool for preventing serious heart problems; it helps identify potential issues like weakened heart muscles or abnormal blood flow before they worsen.
              • Thrombolysis: As part of your proactive heart health plan, thrombolysis is a critical treatment option for quickly addressing blood clots that are causing a heart attack or stroke.
              • Atherectomy: Atherectomy is a minimally invasive procedure to clear artery blockages, helping prevent future heart attacks, strokes, and other heart problems.
              • Electrocardiogram (EKG): Don't wait for symptoms; proactively assess your heart health with an EKG, a simple test that can detect underlying issues and help prevent serious cardiovascular events.
              • Peripheral Artery Catheterization: As a preventative measure, peripheral artery catheterization helps identify blockages in your leg and foot arteries, enabling timely treatment to reduce your risk of stroke and heart attack.
              • Vascular Duplex Ultrasonography and Plethysmography: This non-invasive screening, combining vascular duplex ultrasound and plethysmography, gives your doctor valuable information about the condition of your blood vessels, allowing for timely intervention and prevention of serious cardiovascular events.
              • Tilt_Testing: This test is a valuable tool in diagnosing neurocardiogenic syncope, a condition that can sometimes be related to heart health.

              Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Cardiovascular care with Dr. Sherali Gowani:

              What is a Cardiologist, and when should I see one?
              A cardiologist is a medical doctor specializing in the heart and blood vessels. You should see a cardiologist if you experience symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath, have a family history of heart disease, or have risk factors like high blood pressure or high cholesterol that require specialized management.
              What can I expect during my first visit with Dr. Sherali Gowani?
              Your first visit with Dr. Gowani will be a comprehensive cardiovascular assessment. We'll review your medical and family history, perform a physical exam, obtain an EKG, and discuss lifestyle and risk factors. This is the first step in creating a personalized heart health plan for you.
              What are the most important things I can do to prevent a heart attack?
              Taking control of your cardiovascular health is within your reach. Knowing and managing your blood pressure and cholesterol, not smoking, regular physical activity, and a heart-healthy diet are key preventive steps. By proactively addressing these areas, you empower yourself to significantly reduce your risk of a heart attack.
              How is Peripheral Artery Disease (P.A.D.) related to heart disease?
              Peripheral artery disease (P.A.D.) is caused by atherosclerosis, the same process that leads to coronary artery disease. However, P.A.D. affects the arteries in your legs and feet. Having P.A.D. is a significant warning sign, strongly suggesting a high risk of heart attack and stroke.
              What is a TAVR procedure?
              TAVR, or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, is a groundbreaking, minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve. Unlike traditional open-heart surgery, TAVR is performed through a catheter, leading to a much faster recovery for eligible patients.
              What is a calcium score screening?
              A calcium score screening is a special CT scan of the heart that measures the amount of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries. It's a powerful preventive tool to help Dr. Gowani better understand your future risk of a heart attack and guide the intensity of your prevention strategy.
              What is a stent, and how is it placed?
              A stent is a tiny, wire-mesh tube that acts as a scaffold to prop open a blocked artery. It's placed during a minimally invasive procedure called an angioplasty, where a catheter is guided through a blood vessel to the heart.
              What is a cardiac stress test?
              A cardiac stress test evaluates how your heart performs during physical activity. You walk on a treadmill while your EKG and blood pressure are monitored. It's a key non-invasive tool for detecting potential blockages in the coronary arteries.
