    Shared Medical Appointments

    Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to the body. While the heart continues working, it does not pump as efficiently as it should. A primary care physician can diagnose CHF. He or she may then refer the patient to the Cardiology Department for follow up and/or treatment.

    Aria DiBiase, M.D., holds weekly shared medical appointments (SMA) for CHF patients. The SMAs are designed to help patients treat and manage their CHF on an ongoing basis.

    Please contact the Cardiology Department at 650-853-2975 for more information or to make an appointment.

    Dr. Friedman, M.D.
