Hypertension Clinic

High blood pressure - or hypertension - occurs when the blood pressure is above normal limits and is present in sixty six million patients nationwide. If untreated, high blood pressure may cause damage to the vessels and arteries of your major organs -the heart, the brain, the kidneys, and the eyes. The treatment to reach optimal blood pressure includes lifestyle modifications as well as use of antihypertensive medications. In all major hypertension clinical trials patients have needed at least two or more antihypertensive medications to reach treatment goal. Therefore we designed our hypertension clinic to assist our patients to construct a management strategy which will also fit their lifestyle.

  • Assess blood pressure
  • Arrange for necessary tests to rule out secondary causes of hypertension
  • Lower patients' blood pressure through lifestyle and medication
  • Return patients to the care of family doctor
