Me and My Heart: How do I live with this?
Post-hospital discharge, Bill Fitzpatrick adjusts to living with heart disease as he resumes working and trying to maintain a normal life.
However, Fitzpatrick’s return to the office is littered with obstacles like a second COVID-19 diagnosis and the passing of his uncle.
Still, Fitzpatrick perseveres in the face of adversity and ultimately is honored at the 69th Neal Awards with the Best Podcast award and is internally recognized at the 2023 MM+M Awards for Commercial Excellence.
Ajay J. Kirtane, MD, SM, the director of Columbia Interventional Cardiovascular Care at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center, talks about the importance of medications for treating heart disease as well as the fear patients live with.
Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, a preventative cardiologist, spokesperson for Go Red for Women initiative through the American Heart Association and founder of Adesso, a heart prevention and wellness program for women, emphasizes the importance of exercise as a way to combat heart disease on a daily basis.
Dr. Rohit Vuppuluri, a cardiologist based in Chicago, underscores the impact COVID-19 can have on the cardiovascular system.
Chen Fang, PharmD, RPh, clinical strategist, team lead and manager at Cardiology Advisor, walks the audience through the experience for a patient living with heart disease after their emergency care is through.
MM+M, in conjunction with Cardiology Advisor, presents Me and My Heart, a special four-part podcast series delving into Fitzpatrick’s turbulent patient journey, the persistence of heart disease and issues surrounding access to care in America.
