Information for Patients

From the practitioner: About My Practice

Dr. Druz is the founder of the Holistic Heart Centers, a network of affiliated cardiology practices focused on making precision medicine personal for cardiovascular patients. She is the creator of the Functional and Integrative Therapeutics based on Genome, Environment, Nutrition, Exercise, and Supplements (Fit in Your GENES), an innovative functional medicine program to control inflammation, oxidative stress, and auto-immunity. Utilizing targeted assessments, including genetic testing, inflammatory markers, lipids, and hormones, the program allows patients to avoid or reduce statins and other cardiac medications, improve blood pressure, reverse vascular aging, recover heart muscle function, and lower the impact of atrial fibrillation.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Our goal is to deliver a thorough and personalized evaluation, including a discussion of all treatment options and root causes of illness. Our philosophy is that illness is often by chance, but wellness is always by choice. We are partnering with our patients to help them make the right choice. As a board-certified cardiologist, Dr. Druz brings over a decade of experience in private and academic practice settings to benefit her patients. Precision cardiology, based on functional medicine principles, enables each patient to get the best-personalized medicine approach to complement and improve upon traditional care. Patients can expect a true partnership with their physicians and the entire care team that delivers successful outcomes.
