Send us Fan Mail Cardio Obstetrics: What is it? | MedStar Health DocTalk Pregnancy is often described as a natural stress test for the body, and especially for the heart. In this episode of MedStar Health DocTalk, host Debra Schindler sits down with cardiologist and cardio-obstetrics specialist Dr. Minhal Makshood to explore the growing field of cardio obstetrics and why pregnancy can reveal important clues about a woman’s long-term cardiovascular health. Dr. Makshood explains how conditions such as preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, and peripartum cardiomyopathy can affect both mother and baby, and why these pregnancy-related complications may increase a woman’s risk of future heart disease, heart failure, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions. The conversation also highlights the importance of prenatal counseling for women with existing heart conditions, the role of multidisciplinary care teams, and why the postpartum period—sometimes called the “fourth trimester”—is a critical time for monitoring heart health. In this episode, you'll learn: • What cardio obstetrics is and why the specialty is rapidly growing • How pregnancy can uncover previously undiagnosed heart conditions • The warning signs of heart complications during and after pregnancy • Why preeclampsia and gestational diabetes are more than temporary pregnancy complications • How pregnancy history can help predict future cardiovascular risk • The importance of coordinated care between cardiologists, obstetricians, and maternal-fetal medicine specialists • What every woman should know about protecting her heart before, during, and after pregnancy Whether you're planning a pregnancy, currently expecting, recently delivered a baby, or simply interested in women's heart health, this episode provides valuable insights that could have lifelong implications. If you have a heart condition, experienced complications during pregnancy, or want to learn more about protecting your cardiovascular health before, during, or after pregnancy, schedule an appointment with the Women's Health and Cardio Obstetrics Clinic at MedStar Health. Call 301-570-7404 to learn more or make an appointment.

Episode #13
Send us Fan Mail A cancer diagnosis can change everything in an instant. One conversation. Three words: "You have cancer." Suddenly, patients and families are faced with uncertainty, fear, and countless questions about what comes next. In this episode of MedStar Health DocTalk, host Debra Schindler sits down with medical oncologist and hematologist Dr. Ankit Madan of MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center, to discuss the critical first steps after a cancer diagnosis. Dr. Madan explains how patients move from diagnosis to treatment, how cancer is staged, and why building a multidisciplinary care team is essential for the best possible outcomes. The conversation explores the emotional impact of hearing a cancer diagnosis, the importance of patient navigators, social workers, nutritionists, mental health professionals, and the role patients play as active partners in their own care. Dr. Madan also discusses treatment advances, clinical trials, immunotherapy breakthroughs, second opinions, and practical advice for patients and families navigating one of life's most challenging journeys. Whether you or a loved one has recently been diagnosed with cancer, this episode offers guidance, reassurance, and expert insight into what happens after the diagnosis—and how patients can move forward with confidence and support. Topics covered: • Coping with the emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis • Understanding cancer staging and treatment planning • The role of biopsies, CT scans, PET scans, and additional testing • Building a multidisciplinary cancer care team • Patient navigators, social workers, and support services • Shared decision-making and patient autonomy • When to seek a second opinion • Clinical trials and emerging cancer treatments • Immunotherapy and advances in cancer care • Nutrition, exercise, and mental health during treatment • Cancer survivorship and ongoing surveillance To learn more about cancer care at MedStar Health, visit MedStarHealth.org/Cancer.
