Anjali Owens, MD, is medical director of the Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease at Penn Medicine. Dr. Owens treats patients with cardiovascular conditions that can be passed on from generation to generation. Her particular area of expertise is in inherited cardiomyopathies, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy. The Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease specializes in helping the entire family identify, understand and treat genetic forms of heart disease.
“We firmly believe that patients should live well with their cardiomyopathy,” says Dr. Owens. “One of our take home points on almost all of our visits is that you have this disorder or this cardiomyopathy, but it's something we want you to live with. And so we encourage them to bring their family members, to bring their significant others. So, we can really see how this condition is affecting their life and how we can improve any of their symptoms so that they can live well.”
