Heart disease is the #1 killer of men and women in the United States. Stroke is #5 and is the leading cause of disability.
Whether you are a man or woman, no matter your race, in the prime of life or enjoying your golden years, you may be at risk for heart disease or stroke. The best protection you can take is to know your personal risk.
Throughout the year, Northside may offer free screenings to determine the risk for stroke, heart disease, and diabetes.
Screenings are free, but reservations are required.
In honor of Heart Month, Northside Hospital Heart Institute will host two free screenings to determine risk for heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease.
