The @VUMC_heart Women's Heart Center is SO EXCITED to welcome our newest team member - Lauren Wells, LCSW! Lauren will play an essential role in treating our patients' mental and social wellness. #HolisticMedicine #equity #teamwork #cardioobstetrics

If you’re going to promote exercise therapy for PAD, then make sure you provide it. After CMS coverage, <1.5% of claudicants had claims for SET. We started 5 centers in ‘18 bc few existed in Boston. Its easy to tell people to stop smoking & exercise, its harder to help them do it

Multidisciplinary approach to care is the only way forward. We have a heart team for PCI/Valve decisions, PERT team for PE care, HTN program for renal stent/RDN, consult service for IVC filters. No turf wars. Need to change PAD approach & not use politics as reason for failure.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Bravo to BostonSci Cardiology & the ELEGANCE Registry Steering Committee for this important and needed work on increasing diversity in PAD trials but also for the wonderful explanation of how to do it! I love that you are holding sites accountable! 😊 Keep up the 💪🏽💪🏽 work!
