Non-invasive cardiologist Howard Wayne, MD discusses the dangers of angioplasty, bypass surgery, and stents to treat heart disease.

Also available on CD at Shows on CD.

SHOW INTRODUCTION A common scene: a person with chest pain goes to the emergency room of a hospital, gets an angioplasty, a stent, sometimes even open heart surgery. The diagnosis? Blockage! Got to do it all, lucky we caught it...you might have died! Well, what if that's all wrong? What if blockages don't kill you and the body can do its own bypass if allowed to and that these interventions actually might kill you quicker than the blockage? Also, how about the fact that several people who died were autopsied after dying of what looked like a heart attack and.... there weren't any blockages? This hour we're joined by non-invasive cardiologist Dr. Howard Wayne who will be trying to change your mind about conventional treatments for heart disease.
