Life Line Screenings

Nine out of ten cardiovascular doctors support preventive health screenings for cardiovascular disease among patients with key risk factors, such as being age 55 or older, family history of cardiovascular disease, tobacco use, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. Screenings can check for the level of plaque buildup in your arteries, related to risk for heart disease, stroke and overall vascular health. The screenings examine:

  • Carotid arteries of the neck, where plaque can build up and lead to stroke or signal risk for heart attack
  • Abdominal aorta, to check for an aortic aneurysm
  • Ankles to check for Peripheral Arterial Disease
  • Heart rhythm, to check for atrial fibrillation, the most common heart rhythm problem

GAR members can get these screenings at a discounted price of $135 for the whole package. Call: 844-591-7087 or visit: http://www.lifelinescreening.com/GAR.
