Our Trusted Ridgecrest Cardiologist Put Your Heart Health First

Because heart disease often has no noticeable symptoms, many people don’t realize they have a problem until a major event like a heart attack or stroke occurs—which is one of the reasons why heart disease is the biggest killer in the United States. To combat this, it is important to not only stay on top of your blood pressure, blood cholesterol level, diet, and lifestyle, but to also understand risk factors. Our cardiology team can help you manage many of your risk factors for heart disease, so you can take your heart health into your own hands.

Risk factors for heart disease include, but are not limited to:

  • Diets that are high in fat, cholesterol, or sodium
  • High blood pressure
  • Stress
  • Lack of physical activity
  • Smoking
  • Diabetes
  • Excessive alcohol consumption
  • A family history of heart disease

At RRH, we understand how troubling heart problems can be, which is why we not only focus on testing and treating the issue, but also offer rehabilitation solutions through our Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Program. This program is designed to improve the quality of life for our patients and is tailored to their specific needs. From helping patients navigate nutrition, physical activity, and stress levels to sharing resources and matching you with experts, our Ridgecrest cardiologists want you to feel confident that you are in good hands every step of your journey.
