Last fall, Mellanie True Hills, founder of StopAfib.org, reached out to the atrial fibrillation patient community to ask, “What would you tell your healthcare providers about living with afib?” More than 1,000 of you provided thoughts for sharing with doctors attending her Opening Keynote speech at the Afib Main Event at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions.
Subsequently, she wrote an article to help doctors improve afib care by exploring five things that afib patients do not want to hear and five things we do want to hear. This article has been published by the prestigious Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology and is available for free so that you can read it, print it, and share it with your healthcare providers.
