Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients.

In this podcast, Doctor Warrick Bishop interviews Tanya Hall, CEO of Hearts for Hearts, a national charity that supports, educates, and advocates for Australians living with heart disease.

They discuss the importance of advocacy for patients with heart rhythm disturbances and the need for access to therapies such as catheter ablation. Tanya shares her own story as a heart patient and how Hearts for Hearts grew organically to provide support, awareness campaigns, and advocacy for patients. They also discuss the diversity of presentation of atrial fibrillation and the importance of seeking advice from a cardiologist. Doctor Bishop highlights the risk of stroke associated with atrial fibrillation and the need for awareness and treatment. Tanya encourages patients to listen to their cardiologist and take recommended treatments. They both recommend reaching out to Hearts for Hearts for support and information.

Australia, like the rest of the western world, has a heart problem.

Over 9 million people around the world die from heart disease every year.

Every 10 minutes, someone in Australia suffers a heart attack. And 21 lives are lost daily because of it.

The devastating fact in all of this is… 

Almost every one of those cases could have been prevented.
