Great to see evidence based approach to managing cardiac health as opposed to the more typical one size fit all “have some statins”

Anyone interested in longevity and that's all of us, you need to read this book. No matter if your fit and healthy or obese, heart health does not discriminate. Do you think you are infallible ? Well think again. If you follow Dr. Warrick Bishop recommendations you will thank him from the bottom of your heart.

For the rest of us, that's everyone, you should read this book as a priority especially if you are approaching 40 years of age and have the genes. It is never too late for all of us, genetics or not, to have it done at least once in your life. It might save your life.

“HAVE YOU PLANNED YOUR HEART ATTACK?” by Dr. Warrick Bishop

Planning Your Heart Attack? An intriguing title! While sitting in Warrick’s waiting room for my husband’s cardiac appointment, I spotted the book. A few minutes spent leafing through it convinced me to purchase a copy on the spot!
​This book is a fascinating, well presented, thoroughly researched treatise in lay terminology, of the preventability of coronary heart disease, utilising proven, painless, affordable testing…a proactive solution to today’s escalating rate of cardiac pathology, particularly in the ‘young and fit’.
​Warrick, a highly qualified, much published author, employs humour and colourful graphics to illustrate the effectiveness of his theory in a most engaging way. Considering our severely overloaded health system, large scale implementation of his philosophy might not only benefit those at risk, but could mitigate problems such as ambulance ramping, lack of beds and overworked staff.
​This book should be in every general practitioner’s personal library…and waiting room!

Having a back ground in health care I found this book to be informative and interesting.
Maintaining the health of people and the provision of health care in order to best achieve this goal is a complex and fascinating subject, one that requires insight, understanding, examination and reflection. In his book Dr Bishop examines his sphere of expertise and poses the question are we doing the best we can to keep people as healthy as we can? Along the way he challenges the status quo and proposes that conversations must be had in order to make sure we are making health care the best it can be. By having common sense discussions and making best health outcomes the a number one priority, Dr Bishop proposes that perhaps we can do better, a message in my books that is always worth consideration. Well done.

Dr. Bishop exploits the Calcium Score scanning to make sure all patients get the safest and most appropriate treatment for their unique characteristics. This book has been a tremendous help to me in negotiating the best course of action for my wife and I. The doctors are hell bent on sticking to the age old guidelines from the institutions. Having this information allowed me to make sound medically valid arguments, and get the tests we really need.

Having been a patient of Warrick Bishop's, I can testify first-hand to the value of this book. In my view, it's essential reading for anyone over 55 - whether you have high cholesterol or not. The book is an easy to read and easy to understand summary of what can , and does, wrong with your heart, and importantly, what you can do about it - well before a heart attack strikes. We all know of "healthy" people who have suddenly dropped dead - the book answers the question : "why?" Don't hesitate - buy a copy now, for you and for family and friends

I'm no medic but this book gave me the information I had been looking for. High cholesterol doesn't automatically mean statins for life - there are alternatives to be explored. Containing enough medical information for those who want that level, the book was easy enough to follow for those of us who aren't so bothered! Dr Warrick Bishop clearly has a passion for getting heart scans accepted into mainstream medicine and reading this book you can see why. As the subtitle of the book says, ' this book may save your life'. Well worth a read before your first heart attack!

All good

I found this book thought very provoking. It presents how the one of the most important indicators of poor Heart Health is overlooked by most health professionals. It is a must if you would like to understand how to discover your own level of heart attack risk.

Glad I bought this book. It contains a lot of useful information for the layman supported by case studies. Dr. Bishop’s message is all about stopping people from having cardio problems in the first place. It reminded me of the old maxim “ an ounce of prevention is better than a ton of cure”.
