CardioVascular Institute
Because heart and vascular health issues are often interrelated, the CardioVascular Institute (CVI) has created an organization of three divisions -- Cardiovascular Medicine, Cardiac Surgery and Vascular and Endovascular Surgery -- in which professionals work closely across specialties to provide you and your family with great care.
CVI to Present Free Educational Event on Women's Cardiovascular Health
The CardioVascular Institute will present a free patient education event on women and cardiovascular disease Saturday, June 16, from 8 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. at the Newton Marriott Hotel. Women throughout the Boston area are invited to attend.
Seats are limited and registration is required.
“The Heart of a Woman” will include lectures on:
- Prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease in women
- Differences between women’s and men’s cardiovascular health and care
- Coronary artery disease, vascular disease and arrhythmias
Activities will also include free cardiovascular health screenings, chair massage, breakfast, lunch and a question-and-answer session in which attendees are invited to pose health questions to expert physicians from the CVI’s Women’s Cardiovascular Program.
Heather Kahn, former anchor at WCVB-TV and spokeswoman for BIDMC, will be mistress of ceremonies. More information>>
