Friends and patients often ask Paul Wang, MD, a heart rhythm specialist at Stanford Hospital & Clinics, what they should do to protect their hearts and stay healthy. In the video above, he talks about how such conversations motivated him to improve his eating habits and begin exercising regularly and how heart-healthy choices can be fit into a busy schedule.

Lia,
It’s inspiring to see a medical professional realizing there’s a need to “practice what I preach.”
The steps to better living outlined by Dr. Wang are fully correct. It’s the little changes that count.
I’m glad to see he’s found a way to over come the sometimes banal feeling of regular cardio. Tennis is a great way to get the heart pumping.

You wouldn’t trust a personal trainer who is out of shape so how can we really put all our trust in a doctor who is out of shape?
