The institute will focus on educating women about heart disease, which remains a leading cause of death for females in the United States. By offering comprehensive screenings, personalized treatment plans, and lifestyle counseling, the program seeks to empower women to take charge of their heart health. Additionally, the clinic will work to raise awareness about the unique challenges women face in cardiovascular health, including hormonal influences and the impact of stress.

This initiative underscores the commitment to improving health outcomes and ensuring equitable access to healthcare services for all women in the community.
