This episode Dr. Joe Galati interviews Dr. Mike Wilson, a cardiologist in Houston's Texas Medical Center. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of heart attacks being seen in the emergency room is down by 30%. This is due to fear of going the the ER, and contracting COVID. Instead, patients sit home with symptoms and neglect getting the care they need. Dr. Wilson details risk factors, symptoms of heart attack and other related diseases, and why it's important to seek help immediately. Call 911 if you have chest pain or shortness of breath.
