Dr Daniel O’Hare, Consultant Cardiologist at Blackrock Health, highlights the importance of earlier awareness and prevention in heart health.

Consultant Cardiologist Dr Daniel O’Hare urges midlife adults to take cardiac risk seriously as new data reveal heart issues emerging earlier than expected.
