My name is Dr Dhaval Naik and I am an assistant professor of cardiovascular medicine at UF Health. I am board-certified in internal medicine, cardiovascular medicine, and also received board certification in lipid disorders to become a diplomate of the American Board of Clinical Lipidology. My areas of clinical and research interest are the prevention of heart disease and managing hyperlipidemia. Also known as high cholesterol, hyperlipidemia is a condition where too many lipids, or fats, are in the blood. Left untreated, hyperlipidemia can create fatty plaque buildup in arteries that can lead to heart attack, stroke, carotid artery disease, and peripheral artery disease.
