The UCLA Women's Cardiovascular Center has paired with Dr. Anne Saltzman to offer individual interventions to help with stress and coping strategies, as well as support groups to help our patients recover and enjoy a full life.

Nothing is more helpful than sharing your thoughts and feelings with someone who understands your experience. "Connecting with others in a safe way heals your heart in ways medicine cannot." Dr. Anne Saltzman is the first UCLA Cardiac Psychologist working with patients directly in our Cardiac Rehab Clinic. Read More >
