Heart disease is the nation's number one killer, but often, the diagnosis comes without an emergency or a heart attack. So what happens then? Bypass surgery? Stents? Drugs? A better diet? As part of Heart Stories, ideastream's multimedia series on heart health, we'll talk to two top heart doctors from the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals. Wednesday morning at 9, We'll weigh the risks and benefits of treatment choices and answer your questions about how to live with -- and prevent -- heart disease.

Guests

Bruce Lytle M.D. Chair of Heart and Vascular Institute, The Cleveland Clinic
Dan Simon M.D. Chief of Cardiovascular Medicine, Director of the Heart and Vascular Institute, University Hospitals Case Medical Center
