A frequently asked question: "Doc, I have no symptoms, do I really need stenting or bypass surgery for my artery blockage?"

​

Contrary to popular belief, many asymptomatic heart artery blockages do NOT require invasive surgery or stenting. Reversal of heart blockages is possible through a combination of monitoring, therapeutic lifestyle modifications and medications. We have successfully managed numerous patients with heart artery blockages without resorting to stents or surgery.
