Good morning! We had a new member at last Saturday’s Walk with a Doc. It all started when we saw Bob (not his real name) in our cardiology office. Bob’s a new patient who just moved to Columbus. Since Bob’s heart attack (2013), he’s made impressive changes. Many of his cardiac risk factors (blood pressure, […]
Good morning! Today we’ll talk about atrial fib and you don’t need to take notes. I’ll send you mine. What is it? Atrial fib (aka A Fib) is one of the most common rhythm problems. It is an irregular activity that usually comes from the roots of the pulmonary veins. My heart skips beats a lot. It […]
Good morning! Like yours, our hearts go out to the humans and animals affected by the wildfires. These organizations are accepting donations. We hope you’re safe and warm, and maybe have a cup of coffee. It’s about to get cold around the U.S. We have seen some snow shovelers in the ER this winter. Every year it seems like there are more and […]

Our brains are […]
Good morning athletes, Friday the 13th is so fun. I would not be surprised if it is the best one yet. Things are shaking out that way. Magical things? They are happening all around us. Why? First, it’s Friday and it’s beautiful. Crisp, sunny, and beautiful. Saturday – all day to do whatever you want. Sunday […]
Good morning! I’m so happy to be with you. I trust, like almost all of my patients, you had a nice Thanksgiving. I hope so. Brrrr! So, this morning’s newsletter might be shorter because I am choosing to write it outside (currently 24 F in Columbus). Why am I in a t-shirt/shorts you ask? Fair question. I […]
