Man Up & Become Heart Smart
“Many men think their symptoms are a sign of something else, like heartburn, so they do nothing,” says Peter Ofman, MD, a cardiologist at Nashoba Valley Medical Center. “Even a man who already had a prior heart attack may not recognize his symptoms, as each attack can be dramatically different.”
