This Technology is Changing How We Screen for Heart Disease

Dr. Shannon Gregoire has heard a lot of hearts. As a veterinarian and practice owner at Auburn Animal Hospital in Massachusetts, she's the one making the call on whether that faint murmur is nothing, or something worth chasing down. So when a tool comes along promising to make cardiac screening faster and more consistent, she's not exactly an easy sell, she's the person who actually has to use it on Monday morning.

That's exactly why we asked her to walk us through Sonus Health, the smartphone-based cardiac screening app turning heart auscultation into something you can document, track, and send to a specialist in a few taps. Not a company rep. Not a demo reel. A working practice owner telling you what she actually thinks.

In this video, Dr. Gregoire breaks down how the technology fits into a real clinic workflow, what it catches that a routine exam might miss, and why she thinks tools like this are becoming less of a novelty and more of a standard part of how we practice.

Watch the video below to hear it straight from her.
