The healthcare system doesn’t provide treatment until it’s too late, it waits for disaster to appear, then reacts. Patients are often told they're "fine" or “normal” based on basic labs or rushed checkups, even when silent threats are building.

The problem is, “fine” or “normal” doesn’t prevent heart attacks… nearly 2,000 people die of heart disease in the U.S. every day. That’s one life lost every 43 seconds. And almost all of those deaths are preventable.
At HealthspanMD, we believe no one should die of a heart attack. Ever. And that is our mission. Don’t let this be your fate, your future is in your control more than you think.
A high calcium score means plaque is building up in your arteries—often with no symptoms. We identify risk early and create a precision plan to stop and even reverse progression.

AFib increases your risk for stroke and heart failure. We help manage your rhythm, reduce complications, and treat the root causes to protect your long-term health.
KNOW MORE
High Lp(a) is a genetic risk factor for heart attack and stroke that often goes undetected. We use advanced testing to identify it early and create a targeted, evidence-based strategy to lower your risk and protect your heart.
KNOW MORE
If heart disease runs in your family, you may be at higher risk. We use advanced screening and precision strategies to stay ahead of what may be coming for you.
KNOW MOREThe sooner you start, the more you can prevent. Heart disease often begins silently, years before symptoms appear. Our proactive and comprehensive approach starts with advanced diagnostics to detect hidden risks early and then create a personalized plan that helps you stay ahead.
Whether your goal is to avoid a first event or prevent something worse from happening again, our expert team will guide you every step of the way.
Discover your greatest opportunities for reducing your risk of heart disease by up to 90% and get ongoing expert support to get lasting results.
