❤️ February is Heart Health Month! ❤️

At Hanover Family Physicians, we’re proud to provide comprehensive Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine — because a healthy heart means a healthier you.

With guidance from Dr. Jon Avula, we focus on prevention, whole-person care, and practical lifestyle changes that truly make a difference. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, but many risk factors are preventable and manageable with the right support.

🩺 Simple ways to protect your heart:
• Know your blood pressure numbers
• Check your cholesterol regularly
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Stay active (aim for 30 minutes most days!)
• Choose heart-healthy foods
• Don’t ignore symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, or unusual fatigue

Through Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine, we partner with you to create sustainable habits that improve heart health — and overall wellness.

If it’s been a while since your last checkup, this is your sign to schedule one! Prevention is powerful. ❤️

📞 Call Hanover Family Physicians today at 804-730-0990 to book your wellness visit and take the next step toward a stronger, healthier heart.
