In this episode, I reconnect with Dr. David Fieno, MD, PhD, a board-certified surgical cardiologist, and a former residency colleague from our days at Cedars-Sinai. Though we've both moved away from Los Angeles, we remain lifelong friends.

In this episode, Dr. Fieno shares his personal and professional journey with GLP-1 drugs, discussing the profound impact these medications have had on the health of his cardiac and obese patients. As a specialist in a variety of cardiology-related procedures, including pacemakers and defibrillators, Dr. Fieno also delves into his role as a vein specialist and his experiences founding an obesity clinic at Heart South Cardiovascular Group, PC, in Alabama. Under his guidance, the clinic has seen remarkably successful outcomes.

Tune in to hear Dr. Fieno's story of innovation and care in the field of cardiology, and learn about the transformative potential of GLP-1 therapies in managing obesity and enhancing cardiac health.
