Description

Join us today as Emma interviews Dr. Heather Shenkman MD, FACC! Dr. Heather is a board-certified interventional cardiologist in practice in Tarzana, California.  She graduated from Albany Medical College in 1999 at the age of 23 through a six-year combined BS and MD program. She completed a residency in internal medicine at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, and then cardiology fellowships at both the University of Rochester and Tufts University in Boston. 

She is the author of “The Vegan Heart Doctor's Guide to Reversing Heart Disease, Losing Weight, and Reclaiming Your Life”.  While Dr. Shenkman is skilled at performing invasive procedures to open blocked arteries of the heart, she is a strong advocate for a healthy lifestyle, including plant-based eating and regular exercise.  She is also an avid athlete, having completed two Ironman triathlons and over 100 endurance events including triathlons, century cycling events, swim meets, and marathons.  She is the mother of 4 year-old Ava.
