87. Dr Peter Clarkson. Exercise with cardiac concerns

Simon Willis

Dr Clarkson is an NHS cardiologist at Raigmore Hospital in Inverness in the Scottish Highlands.  Our previous interview video had more than a million views.  

This follow-up video podcast, a year later, has two parts.  In the first, Dr Clarkson outlines how we should all assess our own cardiac risks and explains more about the decision whether or not to take the drugs statins. 

The second part is about returning to exercise after a heart attack or being diagnosed with atrial fibrillation.

This full interview is available as a video.  

It is the source interview from which I produced two separate videos
