Cardiology Physicians from Medical Trends targets healthcare professionals who specialize in the treatment of heart disease.  They diagnose and treat congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease and electrophysiology. 

This group allows you to target doctors who are highly intelligent, ambitious, well-educated and dedicated to the care and well-being of others.  This target group has received their doctorate degree and completed an internship and residency program.  Continuing education is essential for doctors to keep up with medical advances and license requirements.  Not only do they attend classes, workshops, conventions, and seminars, docs also read journals, articles, magazines, and publication to stay current in their field. 

Diagnostic tests typically prescribed include echocardiograms, cardiac stress tests, blood work, cardiovascular MRIs, EKGs (electrocardiograms), and coronary catheterization.  Their patients undergo such procedures as atherectomy, angioplasty, stenting, coronary artery bypass surgery, and enhanced external counterpulsation.  Cardiologists need supplies and tools to provide proper care to a patient.  A cardiologist uses stethoscopes, otoscopes, pacemakers, blood pressure devices, defibrillators, thermometers, prescription pads, scales, gloves, needles, medications, and medical and office furniture.  They need disposable systems and services for biological and hazardous waste. 

A doctor can work in a variety of settings.  Some work in private practice, group practice, or hospitals.  They are assisted by nurses and administrators.   They prescribe medication to their patients, so they work closely with pharmacists and local pharmacies. 

Medical professionals are concerned about their physical fitness.  A doctor typically maintains a healthy lifestyle.  They eat right, exercise, and take vitamin supplements.  They may shop at a health food store to ensure they are getting the proper nutrients.  The MD may have a gym membership, run, or bike.  They may take martial arts, yoga, spin, Zumba or other exercise classes. 

Stress levels in the medical profession are often high due to the long hours and irregular and on-call shifts.  These factors may also cause stress for their family.  Consequently, they search for hobbies to help reduce their stress level, and they strive to balance work and home demands.  They hire out many of the home chores such as yard work, home maintenance, car maintenance, cleaning, banking, grocery shopping, and other personal errands. 

Many in this group graduate with high debt load due to student loans, so at the beginning of their career, they may need a budget or money management system.  MDs are a highly compensated group, so as their career progresses, they tend to have discretionary income.  They can then purchase luxury homes, vehicles, vacations, and other toys such as RVs, ATVs, motorcycles, snowmobiles, and high-end electronics.  They manage their personal financial portfolio and enjoying investing.
