General Info

The Lipid and Prevention Program at the Lifespan Cardiovascular Institute is dedicated to reducing the risk of first and recurrent heart attacks in at-risk adults. We provide a clinical diagnosis for every patient based on his or her baseline cholesterol profile, family history and, if needed, advanced lab testing. We tailor diet, exercise and medication recommendations to each patient's disorder and level of cardiovascular risk. We are available for consultation and follow-up, or consultation only. We work in collaboration with our patients' primary care physicians, providing updates after every visit, and evaluate self-referred patients as well.
