The heart is an impressive organ, beating between 2 to 3 billion times during an average lifespan. The heart’s main job is to pump blood around your body, making sure that you get enough oxygen and nutrients and also removing unnecessary waste. Sadly, however, heart disease is one of the world’s greatest killers - but it is often preventable - and that’s why cardiology is such a critical area of health.
76 Harley Street has strong multi-disciplinary expertise in Heart
health. We place an emphasis on very early detection of disease and the
very latest in treatment and preventative options.
Our multi-disciplinary team integrates cardiology, cardiovascular
medicine, sports science and exercise physiology with health behaviour
coaching, fitness training, obesity managment, clinical nutrition and
psychology.
Cardiovascular Medicine at 76 Harley Street
Our team, based in
London W1, places emphasis on the early detection of heart disease and
follows up initial investigations with the latest in treatment and
prevention options.
Our approach to prevention invovles a wide range of experts. Our
Heart health programmes enable rapid and effective risk reduction to
prevent heart disease and improve existing conditions that have already
developed. Heart disease remains one of the world's greatest causes of
death and yet is more easily avoidable and managable than almost every
other major disease.
Helping individuals to self-sustain behavioural
changes, in their nutrition, fitness and psychology, as well as access
to the very best expertise and treatments whenever necessary is key to
the 76 approach. Working together with our team over time, our clients
