Cardiovascular & Heart Health

Many serious heart conditions are inherited, including some that show no warning signs until a sudden event. We help you identify your genetic cardiac risks, guide appropriate testing, and build a personalized heart-health plan with your care team, so risk that has been hiding in your family history becomes something you can actually act on. Everything happens through telehealth, with no referral and no waitlist.

​

You might be a fit if

• Heart disease, high cholesterol, or sudden cardiac events run in your family

• A relative died suddenly or unexpectedly, especially at a young age

• You have been told you have elevated cardiac risk without a clear explanation

• A family member has a known inherited heart condition, such as a cardiomyopathy or an arrhythmia

• You have a personal or family heart-health concern you would like evaluated, whatever it is

​

What working with us looks like

We review your personal and family history in detail, looking for the patterns that point to inherited risk, such as cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, familial high cholesterol, and aortic conditions. We guide you to the right test, usually with an at-home sample, and explain what your results mean. If an inherited risk is found, we help you build a monitoring and prevention plan with your cardiologist and coordinate testing for the relatives who may share it.

​

Why this one matters

For inherited heart conditions, early knowledge can be lifesaving. Identifying a risk before a cardiac event allows for monitoring, prevention, and treatment that genuinely change outcomes. And because these conditions run in families, one person's result can prompt the testing that protects parents, siblings, and children.

Common questions

My cholesterol is very high. Could it be genetic?

It can. Familial hypercholesterolemia is a common inherited condition that is often missed, and identifying it changes how aggressively it should be treated. We can help you find out.

​

A relative died suddenly. Should my family be evaluated?

Often, yes. A sudden or unexplained cardiac death in the family can be a signal of an inherited condition, and evaluation can guide screening for living relatives.

​

What happens if a risk is found?

We help you build a plan with your cardiologist, monitoring, prevention, and, when helpful, testing for relatives so they can learn their own risk.
