Looking for a simple way to support your heart?

Taking the stairs may be more powerful than you think. Research found that climbing more than five flights of stairs a day, about 50 steps, was associated with a 20% lower risk of cardiovascular disease.

Small choices throughout the day can add up to big benefits for your heart.

A new study found that people who have had a heart attack, but who are considered low risk for other cardiovascular complications, may be able to safely discontinue beta-blocker use after at least one year.

“Every medication adds complexity, including a greater potential for interactions or side effects over time. In patients who no longer have a clear ongoing indication, in this case no heart failure, no ongoing angina or arrhythmia, being able to step back from a medication is good cardiology practice.” Rigved Tadwalkar, MD

Excited to share that the 25th Annual Hawaii Cardiovascular Symposium is taking shape for October 21–24, 2026 at the Ritz-Carlton Turtle Bay on O‘ahu.

I’ve been proud to be part of this meeting’s continued growth over the years, and this year is especially meaningful as I take on an expanded role on the planning committee.

The symposium has become a standout destination for cardiovascular education in the Pacific, bringing together an exceptional faculty and a dynamic program spanning heart failure, electrophysiology, interventional cardiology, structural heart, imaging, cardiometabolic care, digital health, emerging technologies, and clinical innovation.

Looking forward to helping bring another strong program to life in Hawaii.

Up to 80% of strokes are preventable.

One of the most important steps you can take is managing your blood pressure, since high blood pressure is the leading preventable cause of stroke.

Understanding your blood pressure numbers is one important way to protect your brain and heart.

The top number (systolic) measures the pressure when your heart beats, while the bottom number (diastolic) measures the pressure when your heart rests between beats.

Knowing your numbers can help you take steps toward cardiovascular prevention and better long-term health.
