Innovative Procedures to Treat High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure, also called hypertension, affects approximately 50% of American adults, or 120 million people. It is a leading cause of death in the United States and poses severe health risks, including heart attack, stroke, heart failure and kidney failure. Even more than smoking or diabetes, hypertension is preventable, yet controlling it remains a challenge.

Less than a quarter of adults who are prescribed medications for hypertension have their blood pressure controlled at a safe level. At VHC Health, you can feel confident in the quality of care you’ll receive to manage hypertension thanks to innovation and the expertise of our staff.
