<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>At the Heart of the Matter</h3>
<p>We’ve all heard the stories. The fit, 46-year-old father who suddenly has a heart attack on the basketball court. The friend who discovers that reason she’s always out of breath has to do with her heart, not her allergies. The aunt whose rheumatoid arthritis also caused blockage in her arteries.</p>
<p>It’s certainly enough to make you think: should I being seeing a cardiologist?</p>
<p>That question is a good place to start. In fact, it’s a great question to ask your internist, says Robert Fishberg, MD, FACC, a cardiologist at Associates in Cardiovascular Disease (AICD) who is board certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular disease, and nuclear cardiology. “Not everyone needs to see a cardiologist,” says Dr. Fishberg, “but the best way to find out if you’re someone who should is to visit your primary care physician and follow their recommendations.”</p>
<p>“Obviously,” he goes on to say, “if you have had heart issues in the past, have chest pain, or hypertension [high blood pressure], seeing a cardiologist would be indicated. If you are over 40, with hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes, an appointment with a cardiologist is advisable, especially if you have a family history of heart disease or have parents who experienced heart attacks under the age of 60. Your internist will be able to run tests that give you the information you need to determine your next steps.”</p>
<p>Other warning signs, he says, are vascular problems, because these don’t generally live in isolation. Chest pain, heavy breathing, or passing out with exertion are strong indicators that a cardiac problem exists. Chronic inflammation, like that associated with rheumatoid arthritis, can also be related. And lifestyle – the amount you exercise, what you eat, whether you smoke – is a big factor.</p>
<p>When you’re looking for a good cardiologist, you can start by asking for recommendations from local friends or family. It’s important to find a cardiologist who is convenient for you; in addition, one who is in your network of doctors has the advantage of being able to access health records more easily. You can also ask your insurance companies about recommended providers. The information you receive from these various sources can be compared with any research you’ve done over the internet.</p>
<p>Dr. Fishberg advises that another thing to consider is whether the cardiologist is in a solo or group practice. “With a group practice like AICD, you get the benefit of professionals with slightly different perspectives and areas of expertise being able to weigh in on a patient’s health and treatment. That kind of collaboration is extremely beneficial for the patient.”</p>
<p>AICD also meets the other qualifications, he says with a smile. “We have multiple locations throughout northern and central New Jersey, so we’re convenient for our patients. Plus, we are part of the Atlantic Health System, which enables a straightforward way to collaborate with our patients’ primary care physicians as well as safe and secure access to their health records.”</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" class="youtube-video" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cWeQ8pOxRCM?start=40" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>It’s also important to know how up to date a cardiology practice is. There are so many new therapies and medications around, so many new surgery options, that seeing a doctor in a practice that keeps on top of these evolving methodologies is critical. “There are statins and calcium channel blockers and new agents such as injectables to lower cholesterol, to lower the risk of heart problems. There are new therapies for atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries from a buildup of plaque) available that can mean we don’t need to do open surgery. There’s transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), a minimally-invasive treatment for heart valve issues. Plus, the new diagnostic tools available now can help determine whether a problem would best be helped medically or surgically,” says Dr. Fishberg.</p>
<p>“At AICD,” he continues, “all of these choices are available to us, because we stay current with the latest research. It’s an imperative for us, because we want to make sure we have all the best resources and practices at hand to treat our patients. That’s because we emphasize the patient first. We don’t treat the “heart,” we treat the person. And we know that every person is different. We take our patient-doctor relationships seriously – the high reviews we get for kindness and care reflect our priorities. We collaborate with each other, with the patient and their family, and with the patient’s primary care physician to determine the right course of treatment.”</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>FH Awareness Day was established in 2012 by the Family Heart Foundation to raise awareness of familial hypercholesterolemia worldwide. This annual event is held on September 24th, during National Cholesterol Education Month. Millions of people around the world do not know that they and their families are at severe risk for early heart disease, heart attacks, and even death. Seven out of ten people born today with familial hypercholesterolemia are undiagnosed. Yet, with early diagnosis and treatment, individuals diagnosed with FH can reduce their risk for heart disease by 70%. Together we can raise awareness, find every individual with FH, and prevent early heart disease.<u></u><u></u></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Cancer treatments are often critical in improving a patient’s chance of survival from a deadly disease. But while chemotherapy and radiation therapy have proven invaluable in treating cancers, studies have shown that these very same lifesaving techniques can have an effect on the health of your heart.</strong></p>
<p><strong>What can you do? Being aware that cardiovascular complications can result from cancer treatment gives you a starting point. You should ask to be assessed for any cardiac conditions when starting cancer treatments; at the same time, if you have an existing heart condition your cardiologist should be informed of a cancer diagnosis so that any ongoing treatment can be modified if necessary.</strong></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nurse practitioners provide advanced care as part of your medical team. They have earned their title by completing a master’s or doctoral program in the field, completing advanced clinical training, and receiving national certification. In addition to these rigorous qualifications, they bring a unique perspective to healthcare. Their emphasis is on the health and well-being of the whole person, with an added eye to disease prevention.</p>
<p>Like your doctor, nurse practitioners can order, perform, and interpret diagnostic tests as well as prescribe medicine and other treatments. They are licensed to diagnose and treat patients alone as well as in collaboration with other healthcare professionals. And because of their focus on health education and guiding patients to making positive, smarter, lifestyle choices, patients who see nurse practitioners and follow these recommendations can discover that their out-of-pocket medical costs are lower.</p>
<p>The nurse practitioners at AICD have a specialty focus in cardiovascular care.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All of us at AICD hope that you and your loved ones are safe and in good health as we all do our work to conquer COVID-19. We understand that you may be hesitant about visiting your doctor’s office for medically necessary care. Let me reassure you that your health and safety are our top priorities and that we have put stringent measures in place that allow you to be seen by our doctors in a safe and clean environment.</p>
<p>Medical care is a necessity. If you have postponed your medical care – a procedure, treatment for chronic conditions, or even a follow-up visit – we want to inform you that we have reconfigured both the office environment and processes with safety in mind, and we’re delivering health services with these new measures in place:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Express Check-in</strong> – New check-in procedures and an escort straight to your exam room.</li>
<li><strong>Limited Contact </strong> – We are following social distancing guidelines. We’ve spaced out patient visit time slots and restricted visitors to limit the number of people in our practices.</li>
<li><strong>Universal Screening </strong> – We are screening all patients and staff.</li>
<li><strong>Clean Office Environment </strong> – Masks are required for all patients and visitors.</li>
<li><strong>Virtual Express Check Out </strong> – There’s no need to stop on your way out. We will call you the next day to schedule your next visit or testing.</li>
<li><strong>Telehealth Visits </strong> – Many patients are choosing virtual visits with their AICD provider as a safe and effective alternative for timely, convenient care where appropriate.</li>
</ul>
<p>Keeping you safe and healthy is the reason we come to work every day.</p>
