Patient Support for Heart Conditions

It’s common to have questions about your heart condition and how it’s being treated. At Temple, we encourage you to share your questions and concerns with your doctors or nurses, but we understand that sometimes questions may come to mind at unlikely times.

To provide you with easy access to the information you need, when you need it, the Temple Heart & Vascular Institute has created a library of patient resources. Here you will find disease-specific guides, a list of support groups, links to additional medical information and more.

Understanding Heart & Vascular Disease

The best way to beat heart and vascular disease is to avoid it in the first place or catch it early. We encourage all of our website visitors to learn about the most common causes and symptoms of heart and vascular disease.
