Brief Intro

A leading medical expert and thought leader in Cardiology, Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, is a Board-Certified Cardiologist and founder of HealthspanMD with over 20 years of experience helping patients achieve health and longevity goals.Dr. Hurst challenges the one-size-fits-all approach to cardiology by addressing a wider range of risks on a more personal level where patients never have to guess their next steps throughout the wellness journey.He provides personalized plans aimed to reverse health issues while specializing in comprehensive, connected cardiology with a focus on prevention and wellness, and is on a mission to change the “medicate and operate” approach rampant in today’s health system. Instead, he is focused on providing evidence-based programs to help people take a more proactive approach to prevent, treat, and even reverse the most common diseases that make people sick and end their lives too early.Extensive studies show Dr. Hurst's three-step process can:Reduce your risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure by over 90%Reduce your risk of cancer by 50%Reduce your risk of dementia by 40%Add 12-14 healthy years to your lifeDr. Hurst closely evaluates the 10 most influential risk factors to help you identify pain points, develop a HealthspanMD Action Plan, and avoid the physical, mental, and financial burdens of heart disease.
