Your Heart Recovery Team

Samit Shah, MD, Director, Mechanical Circulatory Support Program, The Valley Hospital, explains the team‑based approach to ongoing care, the “four pillars” of medications (beta blockers, Entresto, spironolactone, SGLT2 inhibitors), remote monitoring like CardioMEMS, lifestyle checks (weight, symptoms), and how coordinated follow‑up aims to reduce hospitalizations and improve daily function.
