Nearly 50 percent of women having a heart attack do not know it because the symptoms seem minor or vague. Women tend to minimize the kind-of-not-feeling-well symptom that is characteristic of a heart attack. Cardiologists report that women also delay treatment not just because the warning signs are non-specific, but because women often tend to everything else before they take care of themselves. For this and many other reasons, UMPhysicians have developed specialty heart clinics just for women. <a href="./Clinics/university-of-minnesota-physicians-heart/info-for-patients/programs/womens-heart-clinic/index.htm" target="">Learn More</a></p> </div> </div><!-- second --> </div><!-- column --> <div class="column"> <div class="third"> <div class="header"> <h3 class="darkblue">Redefining the gynecologic cancer care model</h3> </div><!-- header --> <div class="copy date"> <p>As one of the largest gynecologic cancer programs in the Midwest, the University of Minnesota Physicians and University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview have achieved among the highest five-year cancer survival rates in the world.
