About this listen

 Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. In this podcast episode, Kirk Huntsman, a businessman and entrepreneur, discusses obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with Dr. Warik. They highlight that over a billion people worldwide suffer from OSA, affecting all ages, not just overweight middle-aged men as previously thought. Kirk's company, VIVOS Therapeutics, offers oral appliances to remodel the airway, aiming to resolve OSA instead of just managing it like CPAP devices. They emphasize the importance of getting tested for OSA as it impacts overall health, from cardiovascular diseases to cognitive decline and even motor vehicle accidents. They stress the need for proper diagnosis by experienced dentists and physicians for effective treatment.
