High cholesterol, or hyperlipidemia, can manifest as elevated levels of “bad” cholesterol (LDL – Low-Density Lipoprotein) and/or high triglycerides (commonly referred to as oily blood). When accompanied by reduced levels of “protective” cholesterol (HDL – High-Density Lipoprotein), it poses an increased risk of vascular diseases such as coronary heart disease, strokes, and peripheral vascular disease, which affects circulation in the legs.
Hyperlipidemia is often associated with diabetes and demands stricter LDL control, aiming for levels below 2.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL). It can also be secondary to conditions like hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome, or bile duct obstruction. Managing these underlying conditions is essential for controlling cholesterol levels effectively.
At our clinic, we prioritize personalized care to manage hyperlipidemia. Through thorough assessments, we identify the root causes and create tailored treatment plans. Our goal is to mitigate risks associated with high cholesterol and improve overall cardiovascular health. Patients with diabetes receive focused care to ensure tighter LDL control, which is critical in preventing complications.
We also emphasize lifestyle modifications, including dietary changes, physical activity, and weight management, as these play a significant role in reducing cholesterol levels. Where necessary, we prescribe medications to help achieve optimal lipid profiles and minimize long-term risks.
Our clinic is dedicated to delivering comprehensive and holistic care. We combine medical expertise with patient-centered approaches to ensure effective management of cholesterol-related conditions. With a focus on education and prevention, we empower our patients to take control of their health.
We invite you to visit our clinic and take the first step towards better cholesterol management and improved heart health. Together, we can achieve your health goals.
