A lean, disciplined runner with decades of clean eating and meticulous checkups doesn’t fit the stereotype of heart disease—until a quiet pinch of chest pain during a run reveals a 70% blockage that advances to 90%. Anthony takes us through the surprise diagnosis, the three stents that restored blood flow, and the sober truth that genetics can outrun even strong habits. His story is more than a scare; it’s a blueprint for how informed action, consistent monitoring, and mental resilience can change the arc of a life.

I am a surgeon, researcher, educator and patient advocate who specializes in general urology care and urologic cancers. My expertise includes using open and minimally invasive surgical techniques for treating kidney, prostate, bladder and testicular cancers. In addition to caring for patients, I study health disparities in urologic cancers. My research focuses on the genetic differences in tumors across race and ethnicity as well as differences in how health care is accessed and delivered. I believe that we can create a healthy system that delivers excellent care to everyone, including our most vulnerable populations.
Victor Ingram is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a strengths-based approach to therapy. I focus on the client strengths and resilience to assist with coping with mental and emotional dilemmas. I have experience dealing with male issues, infidelity, low self-confidence, military families, coaching, teaching, and mentoring. I pull from a military, law enforcement, sports, leadership, and business focused background to give a relational approach to my clients.
I offer a results-oriented approach to assist clients with gaining adaptive and resilience skills. I establish a clinical rapport and then move towards challenging behaviors. I am not the ideal therapist for everyone in that I can be succinct and direct in implementing a collaborative approach to help my client achieve their goals.
