February is American Heart Month, known as a critical time for bringing increased attention to cardiovascular health and the prevention of heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the US. Women are particularly vulnerable to cardiac health threats spanning biological, clinical and healthcare system factors that contribute to underdiagnosis, delayed treatment, and worse outcomes compared to men.

Dr. Joy Gelbman, Associate Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine as well as a board-certified cardiologist, is well-versed in the unique challenges facing women when it comes to their cardiac health. She breaks down specific sex-specific risk factors, differing disease presentation and pathophysiology, as well as the experience disparities in treatments and outcomes. Dr. Gelbman speaks with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on Bloomberg Businessweek Daily.
