👂🏻 Listen up! Stop solely relying on your doctors to know what is going on with your health! The best patients are those who take control of their health, ask questions, keep records and are focused on their future health, not just their present health! Knowing your lab 🧪 values (and how they have changed from year to year), what preventive screening tests you are due for and your family health history are SO important in helping you and your doctor plan for your future. I am also a big fan of patients digging down into their genome, sequencing their DNA 🧬 and seeing what they are truly at risk for medically given their genetics. Rather than “pan-scanning”, this approach helps to tailor and narrow down what else you should be on the look out for. Finally, an honest and open doctor-patient relationship is the KEY to good health. Find a doctor you like, one that you trust and one that you can communicate openly with! #cardiology #cardiologist #privatepractice #queenofhearts #healthcare #conciergemedicine #preventivemedicine #dna #genome #doctor #medicine #physician
