I am coming here to help read my Echo because my cardiologist has ZERO time for me. I cannot believe it took me this long to find your channel. REally helpful and I have shared and will continue to share. Thank you so much.
Realised that this video’s been up for 4 years, it must have benefitted tons of people. It’s heartbreaking to see you affected by the viewership rates. Please don’t feel distraught for the lack of subscribers, you are doing so much good via your channel. Please keep doing what you’re doing. Cheers mate.
Colossus is correct. I think people now only want superficial information - 1 minute or less. It’s sad that there are only so few of us that value a real explanation. Attention spans have become tiny. This is why TikTok is popular. I most definitely appreciate this channel! Excellent content.
wow I can't imagine any idiot putting a thumbs down on this Doctor, except a true beligerant ass. This Man is absolutely fantastic in his explantions and I for one would like to thank him for his time and knowledge and caring. Thank you Doctor.
Other cardiologists should take a page or two out of Dr. Gupta book. He clearly knows the heart and explains it so well. Has a calming way of expression in regard to one's heart. ❤️ this physician. Sincerely Paul J. Fasse a fellow open heart (genetic disease) survivor.
I am totally blown away by the in depth description you have provided. After my echocardiogram I received tons of data that meant nothing to me because I didn't know what each variable meant. I know doctors are busy but something as important as your heart should rate a longer discussion or at least a summary of what the results means. Thank you so much for explaining in such clear language what these results mean. I feel much better about about the test results and actually now I know what the results mean. You are doing a fantastic job. Thank you so much.
Woah, this and part two gave such a clear understanding of heart problems. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Good teachers are in short supply.
I fully agree. Before having Stress Echo test couple days ago, I viewed dr. Gupta videos and that helped me to understand what is going on. Incidentally, my outcomes were good and I'm no longer slated for ablation. Hurray!
I consult your channel ALL THE TIME. I have only 10 minutes with my cardiologist, 20 on a good day, which barely scratches the surface. You have filled in a lot of gaps and set my mind at ease often. Any doc who tries to scold for patients googling info should refer them to your channel and play it in their waiting rooms!
Mine didn't scold, but was cynical. For some reason he doesn't explain anything, but does not appreciate one who looks for answers on their own. My test results are apparently secret, but I am thankful for MyChart where I can get a copy of my tests results. Dr. Sanjay Gupta is so appreciated! Thank you doctor for caring.
Sanjay, don't feel unappreciated! In time, viewers will grow and many will benefit from your generosity. I wish you could find a better platform. You have so much more to offer. As necessary as you are, you're not just a doctor and you'll find your niche! 💕
Thank you so much for this informative video. My husband and I watched it shortly before his echo a few days ago. It gave us a better understanding of the measurements being taking and the comments passed between the technician and the cardiologist. We will watch it again when we receive the results. It is so good of you to give of your time to educate not just your own patients but anyone suffering from heart problems. God bless you.
As I watch this video as well as part 2 regarding the right side of the heart I had the results of my uncle before me. I was told the echo was excellent my injection fraction rate is 65-69%. You're absolutely brilliant. You remove my anxieties. I studied my echo. My cardiologist that I had for 9 years passed away his name was dr. Mohammed Latif, he had practice on of Winter Park Florida. My new cardiologist I'm still trying to get comfortable with. I found you during my learning stages after my inferior heart attack. It changed my life and gave me great anxieties. Your videos are where I want to learn and I found calmness. Thank you for all you do
Thank you so much Dr. Gupta. I enjoyed your articulate presentation of the Echocardiogram and the function of two heart valves,specifically The Mitral and Aortic Valves. Most interesting to learn the important significance of the ejection fraction. I’ll be checking in again to hear more cardiac lectures.
American RDCS here. Agree with everything you said except the part where you say needles are not involved. In a lot of cases a peripheral IV will need to be inserted to use an ultrasound enhancing agent such as Definity. This is a type of contrast for ultrasound which is not radioactive and is not a dye. Patients sometimes come in for an echo and when they hear they have to have an IV, they are upset because they didn’t read anything about that online. In actuality, this is an extremely common tool that we use to enhance endocardial delineation. If you are going in for an echocardiogram, prepare for the possibility of a quick IV. You may be one of the few people who have other crystal clear images where it is not necessary, but it’s best to not get your heart set on that. This is especially the case if you have some other underlying heart disease such as atrial fibrillation, prior myocardial infarction, or systolic heart failure where there is much more risk for thrombus (blood clotting) within the heart. Ultrasound contrast can give us sonographers and cardiologists a much better idea of whether there is one hiding in your heart.
Thank you so much, Dr Gupta. I've just had a letter with my echo results and this video helped me to understand it, whereas I would have stumped. Please keep up with this vital flow of information. In these times with so much strain (in the UK) on doctor's appointments and very long waiting times for hospital appointments, your videos are a vital source of information to reassure people. Again, thank you so much.
Thank you Thank you Thank you Dr. Gupta. I would be lost without you now that I found you last year. You are a REAL doctor. I was investigating the history of the MD designation and found that it means teacher. Poet Maya Angelou said it well when she once told a graduating class: “When you get, give. When you learn, teach.”
Excellent presentation - took the mystery out of my echo report. Unfortunately, nobody explained anything to me when I had it done, which only increased my anxiety... I think most doctors like to keep patients mystified to keep us looking to them as the only ones who can understand these things... again, a great explanation that put me at ease...
Thanks doctor Gupta, don't be disheartened by the decreased of your subscription..Doctor's like you are very important to us..We value every information that you share.. I've learned a lot in a little bit of time on your video. I recently had an echocardiogram, results are pending..This video prepared me for the results.. Thanks again..
Thank you for making cardiology something the layman can understand. I wish you could be my cardiologist! You are the best of the best because you are so kind! God bless you and your work!! ❤️
There are no words to describe the appreciation I have for you and I’m sure many feel the same way…Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! so much for taking the time out to explain all that you do in such depth…I don’t think doctors realize the type of anxiety patients and their families go through when they found out they have heart failure or any kind of life changing diagnosis. My son was diagnosed with heart failure at 30 and it has been beyond stressful trying to understand all that is going on with him. You have been a huge help for me in n understanding. I wish you were his cardiologist…
PS I subscribed to your wonderful videos. I have a medical background and have many physicians in my family. You are excellent and a credit to your profession. I think you have a real gift in explaining the various intricacies of heart disease. I had an MI (LAD Stent) about 9 weeks ago which led me to your VLOG. Keep up your excellent work.
On 6/30/2021 I ended up in Emergency with what was diagnosed as Atrial Flutter (114/80/157). I'm really grateful to you for your videos, as now I'm in process of rapid knowledge acquisition on everything cardiovascular. I'm going for Stress Echo tomorrow so I really appreciate this and the next video. Thank you again. Greetings from Southern California. God bless you for your videos and publicizing your knowledge to thousands of people world-wide.
Many thanks to you sir for putting such a vital information in public domain. Great treasure to see few non-commercial people like you, who take time in explaining things as it is, without creating a sense of panic.
Yes, an exercise test at the doctor's office during your routine exam. I think it would be a wake up call to many. Due to your videos, I attend the gym more regularly now and enjoy my 3 to 5 mile walks. At 48 yro, I am feeling better with more energy! Thanks again! God's many blessings sent your way!
@@YorkCardiology sir having frequent swelling of ankles ,feet ,legs ,abdomen ..and acute pain in left arm ,neck n leg sometimes ,dizziness in Complete LBBB patient with normal heart functions in echo report too is dangaerous or not ..or what condition this all symptoms indicates ???
What an excellent teaching session, thank you so much. I have had a CABG and other heart problems this last eighteen months and wanted so much to learn more about it. Atlast, a doctor who can explain clearly. Why can't they all be like this! I've subscribed.
Dr Gupta ur explanations r simply superior!!!🙏🏼💯🙏🏼 I am having a marathon on watching all ur videos! LOL I can’t get enough of ur info. I am soooo grateful that u make these for us. I at age 46 (5 years ago) was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm size 8.7 cm and had emergency 10 hour operation, followed by a month in an induced coma. I have a mechanical valve and a pacemaker. Right after surgery I also had a defibulator and I was on the heart transplant list for just over 2 years. And on an IV drip/port of Dobutamine for those 2 years as well. Fast forward to now, I never received a heart transplant and no longer need one. Whew! Imagine if I had one and never really needed one with time.... scary to think about. I am extremely healthy otherwise ( always was I am a personal trainer & health coach). Moving forward what research is currently underway to improve the quality & duration of my life????? Thank u for all u do and I wish to someday give u a big big hug of gratitude & love for u♥️
No words, you are amazing. Come to Australia. 🇦🇺 I’m just an elder lay layperson with absolutely no medical knowledge but even I was able to absorb what you were saying. I certainly won’t remember it but have you on replay and will now watch it over and over and try to impress my Cardiologist in three weeks time. ♥️💔
I just had an echo report and of course my heart doctor didn't say much about it other than it looked ok. I want to thank you for going into depth on how to read my echo report. Now I understand it and can sleep much better now.
Thank you for taking the time to help in our understanding of an EchoCardio test. Well done and most informative. I just received my test results (which were all good) and you answered my questions. Thank you again!
Just had this echo done as my doctor wanted a better look at what might be causing stage three kidney failure disease or whatever and I’m uneducated as to the body’s function with the two, heart and kidney. But YOU dear sir, with this video has been absolutely helpful to the common ear! You’ve made it all understandable. I can’t say how thankful I am to have come across this video! Sincerest of appreciation of your giving of your time in sharing your knowledge! Very grateful. Don’t stop sharing your educated insight with those of us who know nothing about the echo read, the function in simple but defined detail! I thank you! Happy good heart health to you sir!
Hello from Toronto /Canada . Thanks for the simple method of explaining the function of the mitral valve regurgitation. I have just had a echo stress test & keeping my fingers crossed for a favourable reply from my GP .🙏
It is a delight to listen to Dr SG. Explains so well! Makes a huge difference to the patients and their families. And also ensures better compliance from patients because of better understanding of their situation.🙏🙏
Hi..doctor your videos are very informative..Generally cardiologist dont get enough time to answer the queries of their patients.....so your videos are really a blessing to get a general awareness of the cardiac issues...Thanks a lot doctor and may God bless you always.🙏
Handsome, smart, well spoken and generous! Thank you, Sanjay, for the time and effort to inform us and help us understand our heart health. You have quieted my anxiety many times.
Thankyou so very much for taking the time to explain how this test is done, really interesting. I had a heart attack 2015 had two echo's done. watching your video really help me as a layman understand the report. Many thanks
Thank you so much for your very thorough explanation of what an echocardiogram reveals. I have had several and no one ever went over them with me. they just said it was OK, no change since the last one. So, I'm very grateful to you for your very informative video.
Excellent video! Easy to understand. Personally I my ef is 20%, and I have a a AICD, had robotic left mitrovalve repair, so my heart is still deteriorating, will go for second heart transplant evaluation at Mayo Clinic here in Az next February. But God is good, will keep on going! Thanks for your info!
Thank you Dr. Gupta, for this valuable and educational video. You make things easy enough to understand, even for a layperson like myself. My husband has just had an echo and the doctor wants to see him regarding the results. We are a bit worried, and I Googled to find out more about the heart and the exam. I came across your website and my husband watched it. Later on, I did too. We learned a lot as you explained things so well to your doctor students. But as I said, even I understand so much more about the workings of the heart. Thank you so very much.
Thank you for your video, I just had an echocardiogram and will be using this video to review my results when I receive them. I appreciate your clear explanations! As a student nurse I'll be watching for more of your videos down the road! Thanks again!
Thank you SO much for breaking this down and helping us make sense of the report. Not many videos cover the report, and it's definitely a source of anxiety and confusion for the patient...so, thank you!! And thank you for your knowledge, expertise, ability to put all of this technical jargon into laymen's terms. .And, most importantly, thank you for taking the time to do this for us!!! I'm sure your time is limited and I appreciate you giving of it and yourself in helping us.to understand the results of the test. As far as your viewership, no worries. Don't let that discourage you or deter you from making these videos. Sometimes people don't have the ability or patience to sit through listening to anything technical. Maybe that's why a lot of people don't bother reading through an instruction manual...unless they run into trouble during assembly and then are forced to refer to the manual. My point is, there are also people who DO want to know the nuts and bolts of things, especially those who have to have tests, and are worried about their health...especially when it involves their heart. So, please don't get discouraged. We need you and your videos!! Thanks Again!! ❤
Thank you so much. This video was very helpful. I was able to take my report and watch the video and go through it step by step. I appreciate your time, energy and expertise in doing these videos.
JeanStarling , This is exactly my plan.. when I get my results ,then l'll go thru the video,then l'll have an idea what my options are..You must admit that most doctors are not thorough like Doctor Sanjay..
This my first time on your channel. It was very informative. I had an echo done 3/4/21 and this is4/1/21 and hasn't gotten an explaination of the results. He is just sending meds to pharmacy. I so which you were my doctor. May God bless you.
I am so grateful for you putting out this information which just put me at ease in a MAJOR way. If you were here, I'd hug you. Thank you so very much for doing what you do. If there was ever good Karma, this is certainly it. I am filled with gratitude, Dr. Gupta!
Thank you. Right now we are starting the workup for chest pain, light headed, dizzy, and occasional abnormal heart beat. Accidentally last summer on lung ct, no contrast, they found enlarged ascending aorta. Now with symptoms and family history of sudden death it is being investigated. Scheduled for ct Feb 12, bloodwork the first of month, and echocardiogram not yet scheduled but ordered. I was a mechanic so the way you explain things makes perfect sense. Thank you. Subscribed. I want to learn more so I can carry on an educated discussion and make educated decisions. 58 will be 59 in 4 months. Aorta was 4.1 cm. 1 year earlier was not mentioned. For that matter not in several ct over 3years for module and tumor in right lung. All the sudden in August there it was. So, a lot to learn and tests to take.
Much appreciation for quality information that doesnt over simplify and yet remains accessible. I firmly believe information helps me to not worry but also to understand better what my doctors are looking for and why.
This was tremendously helpful. Had my first echo. As someone with Afib your information in this video was super helpful in making connections and helping me be informed when I chat with my doctor. You are an amazing educator and a wonderful soul. Best to you always.
Thank you for taking the time to educate us, in a way that is detailed, yet easy to comprehend. I certainly learned a lot. You have a good, positive delivery !
Thank you so much for the detailed video. I just had an echo done a month ago and it will definitely help me understand the results. Also, it was very educational to understand the function of the right and left side of the heart and what they do. thank you so much.
You were extremely thorough in your explanation of the echo report. It helped me immensely in understanding the function and structure of the heart. I have learned a great deal from you.
thank you for taking the time to explain the heart . I'm going through testing and study and I will be able to understand the results much better because of your video's. it is also a little frightening for me because I'm struggling with breathtaking and have hbp for a long time...also hyperthyroid that caused my hbp found at age 57 . had the thyroid removed but still struggle with it and bp fluctuations. I'm 64 now and want to be active and enjoy retirement so I praying for the right help for my problems . again thank you you are a blessing.
Watching from Houston Thank you for this informative explanations of echo results. Now I have a better understanding on d echo results of my husband recently. He had CABG 3 yrs ago. Definitely I will share this video to my family n friends. God bless
Very clear, concise and well explained. After i get the report from my cardiologist it is just a report and I have no clue what the report meant. After this video, it is so clear and it is like whooh now I know. Thank you
This presentation is great! It explains the use of the echo so that you can ask informed questions. Dr. Gupta is so relatable, which is therapeutic in of itself! Thanks.
Thank you so much for taking out your time to share this important information with us. Your explanation was very clear and easy to follow. However, I now have anxiety because most of the things on my report states moderate. However, I am glad that I do understand the severity of my heart health and therefore this will help motivate me to take better care of my health.
Thanks Dr Gupta, this was very informative and helpful. Am a healthcare worker and u just demystified the echo for me. Pls keep up the good work. And I can assure u that only those who do not know the vaue the information u provide will unsubscribe.
This vid is SO helpful! Many patients don't want to know the whys or wherefores, but some like myself are desperate for exactly this type of explanation - the whole of it! - in our need to understand exactly what is amiss, what the abnormalities mean, and how/why to fix. Ifno like this is surprisingly difficult to find, so THANK YOU!
Thank you Dr. please don’t be discouraged by the numbers because you truly are helping me I am a recent new subscriber to your channel and right now I am having issues with my heart I just was diagnosed as a fib and one of your videos describe exactly what I am going through right now and today I just went to the doctor and had a echo cardio gram so please keep coming you are a good doctor and I really wish you were here in California I thank God for your video channels
Great information! Used it today to read my husbands report. Luckily every sentence had the word normal in it! Watching the video definitely helped us understand what we were reading.
You are so helpful. Thank you. I have heard many complaints of numbers going down on RUclips. Tell your watchers that commenting, even with a word or two, and liking help to recommend you on YT.
I am having an echocardiogram tomorrow due to mitral valve regurgitation causing breathlessness and fatigue. I found your video very useful in understanding what is going on in my heart. Many thanks.
Hey everyone. I have what I think you all would agree is a great idea. :) Dr. Sanjay has many of us that love him. Let's all share our favorite video on our Facebook or favorite social media. Some of our friends would also consider this channel a great find. And for our good doctor I say -- perhaps adding a super simple 1 minute intro with a short explanation for all the folks that can't handle too much information. With time they too will be able to play the entire video and learn more but initially at least they would subscribe and start learning. Just a thought. Special thanks to our favorite doctor, Dr. Sanjay!!!! We love you.
Thank you so very much for your meaningful explanation Dr. Gupta! So informative and every question I had was answered completely! You are a wonderful physician and many, many could learn so much from you!
I am having an echo in 3 days and your video was very informative! Thank you so very much for explaining everything so well. I was able to understand everything. Thanks again!! Keep your videos coming ❤!!
Many thanks for all your videos and taking time to explain. It really helped me to understand the complexity of my abnormal echo results.with moderate leaky mitral valve etc. will continue to follow you.
Thanks very much, really the human being needs every health specialist to follow your precious way, and educate people who are welling . My husband diagnosed with blocked arteries just after six months his cardiologist gave him all clear, it is an acceptable

Fully agree....
100 percent true

I've had echo and they mentioned about AF

thank you charni!!!
@@YorkCardiology sir having frequent swelling of ankles ,feet ,legs ,abdomen ..and acute pain in left arm ,neck n leg sometimes ,dizziness in Complete LBBB patient with normal heart functions in echo report too is dangaerous or not ..or what condition this all symptoms indicates ???
Im so glad came across this video. ❤
Wow! Lots of good information explained in a way the patient can understand. Thank You, Doctor.
Thanks for the lectures on reading echocardiograms...it was so easy to follow your notes and compare with the written notes.
What an excellent teaching session, thank you so much. I have had a CABG and other heart problems this last eighteen months and wanted so much to learn more about it. Atlast, a doctor who can explain clearly. Why can't they all be like this! I've subscribed.
Dr Gupta ur explanations r simply superior!!!🙏🏼💯🙏🏼 I am having a marathon on watching all ur videos! LOL I can’t get enough of ur info. I am soooo grateful that u make these for us. I at age 46 (5 years ago) was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm size 8.7 cm and had emergency 10 hour operation, followed by a month in an induced coma. I have a mechanical valve and a pacemaker. Right after surgery I also had a defibulator and I was on the heart transplant list for just over 2 years. And on an IV drip/port of Dobutamine for those 2 years as well. Fast forward to now, I never received a heart transplant and no longer need one. Whew! Imagine if I had one and never really needed one with time.... scary to think about.
I am extremely healthy otherwise ( always was I am a personal trainer & health coach). Moving forward what research is currently underway to improve the quality & duration of my life????? Thank u for all u do and I wish to someday give u a big big hug of gratitude & love for u♥️
Just wonderful teaching. Thank you.
No words, you are amazing. Come to Australia. 🇦🇺 I’m just an elder lay layperson with absolutely no medical knowledge but even I was able to absorb what you were saying. I certainly won’t remember it but have you on replay and will now watch it over and over and try to impress my Cardiologist in three weeks time. ♥️💔
6 years later and I find your videos very informative. Thanks so much doc!!
I just had an echo report and of course my heart doctor didn't say much about it other than it looked ok. I want to thank you for going into depth on how to read my echo report. Now I understand it and can sleep much better now.
Thank you for taking the time to help in our understanding of an EchoCardio test. Well done and most informative. I just received my test results (which were all good) and you answered my questions. Thank you again!
Just had this echo done as my doctor wanted a better look at what might be causing stage three kidney failure disease or whatever and I’m uneducated as to the body’s function with the two, heart and kidney. But YOU dear sir, with this video has been absolutely helpful to the common ear! You’ve made it all understandable. I can’t say how thankful I am to have come across this video! Sincerest of appreciation of your giving of your time in sharing your knowledge! Very grateful. Don’t stop sharing your educated insight with those of us who know nothing about the echo read, the function in simple but defined detail! I thank you! Happy good heart health to you sir!
Thank you. You are a blessing. I understand 100%❤
Super great information !!! Thank You !!!
Hello from Toronto /Canada . Thanks for the simple method of explaining the function of the mitral valve regurgitation. I have just had a echo stress test & keeping my fingers crossed for a favourable reply from my GP .🙏
The best video I've seen so far on the subject. All my anxiety are gone. I wish you a brighter future
It is a delight to listen to Dr SG. Explains so well! Makes a huge difference to the patients and their families. And also ensures better compliance from patients because of better understanding of their situation.🙏🙏
Thank you. I am scheduled for an echo next week, and I appreciate the explanations.
Hi..doctor your videos are very informative..Generally cardiologist dont get enough time to answer the queries of their patients.....so your videos are really a blessing to get a general awareness of the cardiac issues...Thanks a lot doctor and may God bless you always.🙏
You always present an excellent format of information not only for a patient but for retired medical professionals as well.God bless.
Handsome, smart, well spoken and generous! Thank you, Sanjay, for the time and effort to inform us and help us understand our heart health. You have quieted my anxiety many times.
Thankyou so very much for taking the time to explain how this test is done, really interesting. I had a heart attack 2015 had two echo's done. watching your video really help me as a layman understand the report. Many thanks
Thank you so much for your very thorough explanation of what an echocardiogram reveals. I have had several and no one ever went over them with me. they just said it was OK, no change since the last one. So, I'm very grateful to you for your very informative video.
Excellent video! Easy to understand. Personally I my ef is 20%, and I have a a AICD, had robotic left mitrovalve repair, so my heart is still deteriorating, will go for second heart transplant evaluation at Mayo Clinic here in Az next February. But God is good, will keep on going! Thanks for your info!
Please eat whole food plant based
What kind of food is that?
Eat a Mediterranean diet.
Thank you Dr. Gupta, for this valuable and educational video. You make things easy enough to understand, even for a layperson like myself. My husband has just had an echo and the doctor wants to see him regarding the results. We are a bit worried, and I Googled to find out more about the heart and the exam. I came across your website and my husband watched it. Later on, I did too. We learned a lot as you explained things so well to your doctor students. But as I said, even I understand so much more about the workings of the heart. Thank you so very much.
Thank you for all you do in helping nurses build their practice. This is a wealth of information. Thank you again Docotor.
Thank you for your video, I just had an echocardiogram and will be using this video to review my results when I receive them. I appreciate your clear explanations! As a student nurse I'll be watching for more of your videos down the road! Thanks again!
We thank God for your life and and also we wish your dad a speedly recovery
I truly wish you were my cardiologist. You are very knowledgeable. Thank you for the video. God bless you
he virtually is. you don't need to listen to the jerk you have.
Just had an echo today. I'm looking forward to the visit with my primary care and a cardiologist. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you SO much for breaking this down and helping us make sense of the report. Not many videos cover the report, and it's definitely a source of anxiety and confusion for the patient...so, thank you!! And thank you for your knowledge, expertise, ability to put all of this technical jargon into laymen's terms. .And, most importantly, thank you for taking the time to do this for us!!! I'm sure your time is limited and I appreciate you giving of it and yourself in helping us.to understand the results of the test. As far as your viewership, no worries. Don't let that discourage you or deter you from making these videos. Sometimes people don't have the ability or patience to sit through listening to anything technical. Maybe that's why a lot of people don't bother reading through an instruction manual...unless they run into trouble during assembly and then are forced to refer to the manual. My point is, there are also people who DO want to know the nuts and bolts of things, especially those who have to have tests, and are worried about their health...especially when it involves their heart. So, please don't get discouraged. We need you and your videos!! Thanks Again!! ❤
Thank you so much. This video was very helpful. I was able to take my report and watch the video and go through it step by step. I appreciate your time, energy and expertise in doing these videos.
JeanStarling , This is exactly my plan.. when I get my results ,then l'll go thru the video,then l'll have an idea what my options are..You must admit that most doctors are not thorough like Doctor Sanjay..
This my first time on your channel. It was very informative. I had an echo done 3/4/21 and this is4/1/21 and hasn't gotten an explaination of the results. He is just sending meds to pharmacy.
I so which you were my doctor. May God bless you.
I am so grateful for you putting out this information which just put me at ease in a MAJOR way. If you were here, I'd hug you. Thank you so very much for doing what you do. If there was ever good Karma, this is certainly it. I am filled with gratitude, Dr. Gupta!
Thank you. Right now we are starting the workup for chest pain, light headed, dizzy, and occasional abnormal heart beat. Accidentally last summer on lung ct, no contrast, they found enlarged ascending aorta. Now with symptoms and family history of sudden death it is being investigated. Scheduled for ct Feb 12, bloodwork the first of month, and echocardiogram not yet scheduled but ordered. I was a mechanic so the way you explain things makes perfect sense. Thank you. Subscribed. I want to learn more so I can carry on an educated discussion and make educated decisions. 58 will be 59 in 4 months. Aorta was 4.1 cm. 1 year earlier was not mentioned. For that matter not in several ct over 3years for module and tumor in right lung. All the sudden in August there it was. So, a lot to learn and tests to take.
Very helpful, I wish my cardiologist would explain it as well as you have. Thank you for making this video.
Much appreciation for quality information that doesnt over simplify and yet remains accessible. I firmly believe information helps me to not worry but also to understand better what my doctors are looking for and why.
This was tremendously helpful. Had my first echo. As someone with Afib your information in this video was super helpful in making connections and helping me be informed when I chat with my doctor. You are an amazing educator and a wonderful soul. Best to you always.
I just love you so much. I have a cardiologist but she doesn't explain my tests. You answer my many questions. Thank you so much dear Sir.
Thank you for taking the time to educate us, in a way that is detailed, yet easy to comprehend. I certainly learned a lot. You have a good, positive delivery !
Thank you so much for the detailed video. I just had an echo done a month ago and it will definitely help me understand the results. Also, it was very educational to understand the function of the right and left side of the heart and what they do. thank you so much.
How very kind ..thank you so much!
You were extremely thorough in your explanation of the echo report. It helped me immensely in understanding the function and structure of the heart. I have learned a great deal from you.
thank you for taking the time to explain the heart . I'm going through testing and study and I will be able to understand the results much better because of your video's. it is also a little frightening for me because I'm struggling with breathtaking and have hbp for a long time...also hyperthyroid that caused my hbp found at age 57 . had the thyroid removed but still struggle with it and bp fluctuations. I'm 64 now and want to be active and enjoy retirement so I praying for the right help for my problems . again thank you you are a blessing.
I wish you were my Doctor...I've learned so much from you. Thank you so much for helping me understand the heart.
Watching from Houston Thank you for this informative explanations of echo results. Now I have a better understanding on d echo results of my husband recently. He had CABG 3 yrs ago. Definitely I will share this video to my family n friends. God bless
Very clear, concise and well explained. After i get the report from my cardiologist it is just a report and I have no clue what the report meant. After this video, it is so clear and it is like whooh now I know. Thank you
This presentation is great! It explains the use of the echo so that you can ask informed questions. Dr. Gupta is so relatable, which is therapeutic in of itself! Thanks.
Thank you so much for taking out your time to share this important information with us. Your explanation was very clear and easy to follow. However, I now have anxiety because most of the things on my report states moderate. However, I am glad that I do understand the severity of my heart health and therefore this will help motivate me to take better care of my health.
Thanks Dr Gupta, this was very informative and helpful. Am a healthcare worker and u just demystified the echo for me. Pls keep up the good work. And I can assure u that only those who do not know the vaue the information u provide will unsubscribe.
Thank you Dr Gupta, your explanation of the heart echo cardiogram result is very clear. I've learned a lot, keep up the good work.
This vid is SO helpful! Many patients don't want to know the whys or wherefores, but some like myself are desperate for exactly this type of explanation - the whole of it! - in our need to understand exactly what is amiss, what the abnormalities mean, and how/why to fix. Ifno like this is surprisingly difficult to find, so THANK YOU!
thank you so much Lex
Thank you Dr. please don’t be discouraged by the numbers because you truly are helping me I am a recent new subscriber to your channel and right now I am having issues with my heart I just was diagnosed as a fib and one of your videos describe exactly what I am going through right now and today I just went to the doctor and had a echo cardio gram so please keep coming you are a good doctor and I really wish you were here in California I thank God for your video channels
thank you!
arnetta johnson has
I’ve sat through countless echos. This is so helpful.
the moment Dr Gupta said trivial mitral valve regurgitation is normal I had a sigh of relief cos that's what my echo report say....thank you so much
Great information! Used it today to read my husbands report. Luckily every sentence had the word normal in it! Watching the video definitely helped us understand what we were reading.
You are so helpful. Thank you. I have heard many complaints of numbers going down on RUclips. Tell your watchers that commenting, even with a word or two, and liking help to recommend you on YT.
Great info. Your easy going manners helps me learn and want to know more about it. Thanks wonderful Doctor.
I am having an echocardiogram tomorrow due to mitral valve regurgitation causing breathlessness and fatigue. I found your video very useful in understanding what is going on in my heart. Many thanks.
What came out of your test. I found out I have this the past 5 years and my dr never told me. Plus thickening of the left side
Hey everyone. I have what I think you all would agree is a great idea. :) Dr. Sanjay has many of us that love him. Let's all share our favorite video on our Facebook or favorite social media. Some of our friends would also consider this channel a great find. And for our good doctor I say -- perhaps adding a super simple 1 minute intro with a short explanation for all the folks that can't handle too much information. With time they too will be able to play the entire video and learn more but initially at least they would subscribe and start learning. Just a thought. Special thanks to our favorite doctor, Dr. Sanjay!!!! We love you.
Thank you so very much for your meaningful explanation Dr. Gupta! So informative and every question I had was answered completely! You are a wonderful physician and many, many could learn so much from you!
I am having an echo in 3 days and your video was very informative! Thank you so very much for explaining everything so well. I was able to understand everything. Thanks again!! Keep your videos coming ❤!!
I thoroughly enjoyed your video, very very informative, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart
😊
You are a real blessing! With a heartblock powered by a biventricular pacemaker, I find your highly informative videos
very reassuring! God bless you!
I’m my Fathers Lvad care parterre, your videos sir are priceless! Thank you so very much
Many thanks for all your videos and taking time to explain. It really helped me to understand the complexity of my abnormal echo results.with moderate leaky mitral valve etc. will continue to follow you.
Absolutely brilliant and crystal clear. Thank you so much.
Thanks very much, really the human being needs every health specialist to follow your precious way, and educate people who are welling . My husband diagnosed with blocked arteries just after six months his cardiologist gave him all clear, it is an acceptable
