Amy Spahic is the passionate Founder & CEO of CardioVision Care, dedicated to assisting individuals and physicians in comprehending the underlying causes of heart disease. With a profound desire to help people heal, Amy spent 9 years in the Cardiac Nursing field and over 7 years as a Cardiac Clinical Research Coordinator, collaborating with various clinics in Illinois, Indiana, and Florida.
Amy’s personal connection to heart disease stems from the loss of her father at a young age. When she was just 15 years old, her father, aged 57, experienced a massive heart attack and underwent a life-saving quadruple bypass surgery. Her father’s miraculous survival, as his heart grew another artery, sparked Amy’s fascination with the heart’s capacity to regenerate and repair itself. Motivated by a desire to detect heart disease early, she delved into the study of the heart, pouring over the pages of the Britannica Encyclopedia. She meticulously sketched illustrations of what she envisioned the device to look like. Little did she know Dr. Joseph T. Shen was concurrently developing the MCG (MultiFunction Cardiogram).
In 1995, tragedy struck again as her father required not one, but two heart transplants within 24 hours and survived. Unfortunately, in 1997, he suffered a stroke and passed away at the age of 61 due to a blood clot caused by anti-rejection medication. Determined to prevent such losses, Amy is resolute in her mission to save lives, including her own with the MCG, while relentlessly seeking to uncover the root causes of heart disease. Amy herself encountered a medical gap in care after having severe chest pain and undergoing several cardiac modalities only to be told it was anxiety. Amy continued to suffer several years more being misdiagnosed until she had the 10 minute MCG heart scan that discovered she has small vessel disease.
Having thrived in her previous role of empowering physicians to expand their practice, Amy now dedicates her expertise to counseling, training, advising, and coaching heart stakeholders on how to reverse heart disease before it becomes irreversible.
