Keeping Your Kids Heart Healthy

As parents, one of our hopes is to allow our children to live a long and healthy life. Part of this, is creating heart healthy habits for our children. I welcome Dr. Renee Rodriguez (Paro), who is a Pediatric Cardiologist and mom, to talk all about how we promote heart healthy habits for our patients and our own families. We discuss the importance of creating heart-healthy habits and offer simple ways to make this a possibility for your family. What are some ways we can create heart-healthy habits? Why is this important? How can we teach our children the importance of this? What are screening tests done in Pediatrics for heart health? What do Pediatric Cardiologists do as a specialty? Tune in as we discuss heart health for our children in honor of American Heart Month  Make sure to follow @pedsdoctalk and @drreneeparo on Instagram for more tips!  Check out my weekly videos on child health & development by subscribing to PedsDocTalk TV on YouTube.
