Some issues Dr. Lian R. Shaw, MD can help you with:

Autoimmune Diseases

An autoimmune disorder happens when the immune system mistakenly attacks the tissues of its own body, causing symptoms of illness. There are more than 80 different types of autoimmune disorders. While some are very rare, others are fairly common. Combined, autoimmune disorders are one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States, affecting approximately 24 million people.

A properly working immune system identifies foreign substances in the body that might cause illness, such as bacteria and viruses. The immune system then creates antibodies which attack the foreign substances, neutralizing them and keeping the body safe. In people with autoimmune disorders, something goes wrong with this process. For reasons that are not fully understand, the immune system creates antibodies to attack the patient's own tissues.

Symptoms of an autoimmune disorder depend on which tissue is being attacked by the immune system, but common symptoms of autoimmune disease include fever, fatigue, and a general feeling of just not being well. Autoimmune disorders are more common in women than in men, and they may run in families. Autoimmune disorders can affect various parts of the body such as blood vessels, connective tissue, endocrine glands, joints, muscles, red blood cells, skin, and many others.

It is common to have more than one autoimmune disorder at a time. Most are chronic, or life-long illnesses, although they may come and go in flares. Treatment for autoimmune disorders depends on which part of the body is being attacked. For example:

  • A type 1 diabetic whose pancreas has been damaged will need insulin.
  • A person with Hashimoto's whose thyroid has been damaged will need replacement thyroid hormones.
  • Someone with Sjogren's syndrome will need eye drops and mouth rinses to replace tears and saliva.

Many autoimmune disorders of all kinds are treated with immune-suppressing medications, such as corticosteroids (e.g. prednisone) to reduce the effect of the immune system.

Heart Attack

A heart attack is a serious medical event that happens when the blood supplying oxygen to the heart is cut off, usually because of a blockage in an artery. This results in damage or death of part of the heart muscle. The heart can heal, but like any part of the body that was injured it leaves a scar. This scar tissue does not contract effectively, so the ability of the heart to pump is lowered after a heart attack.

A heart attack, sometimes called a myocardial infarction, can happen without warning. However there are certain factors that raise the risk of heart attack. Some of these are:

  • Age
  • Gender (most heart attack sufferers are male)
  • A family history of heart attacks
  • Smoking
  • Obesity
  • High cholesterol
  • High blood pressure
  • Diabetes
  • Unhealthy lifestyle choices (lack of exercise, poor diet, too much alcohol or stress)

Heart attacks typically feel like pain or pressure in the chest that can radiate out to the back, arm, or jaw. Some other symptoms can include fatigue or weakness, shortness of breath, sweating, and nausea.

Treatment aims to increase blood flow to the heart muscle by opening up blocked blood vessels. Medications are sometimes used to dissolve clots in the arteries. Aspirin and other medications such as Plavix can thin the blood and make clots less likely to form. Dilators can widen blood vessels to make room for more blood to flow. Doctors can also use a procedure called catheterization to look at the blood vessels around the heart directly, place stents, or widen vessels using angioplasty. In extreme cases bypass surgery can be used to help blood flow better. After recovery, it is important to lead a healthy lifestyle and take any prescribed medications in order to protect the heart.

Heart Problems

The heart is one of the most important organs in the body. This smooth muscle expands and contracts rhythmically an entire lifetime, pumping blood to the lungs and then to every other cell in the body. When heart problems occur, it becomes difficult for the body to get the nutrients and oxygen it needs via the blood. So while there are a variety of illnesses and disorders that affect the heart, most of them cause weakness, exhaustion and shortness of breath. The most common heart conditions include heart disease, angina, arrhythmia, and valve disorders.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States for both men and women. This includes coronary artery disease, heart attacks, congestive heart failure, and congenital heart disease. Some conditions, such as genetics, cannot be controlled. But there are many other things one can do to lower their risk for heart disease. Controlling high blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reducing or stopping smoking, exercising more and losing weight if needed, and eating a diet low in sodium can all protect the heart.

Angina is a squeezing type of chest pain that happens when the muscles around the heart don't get enough oxygen. It can be regular or infrequent. Usually, angina is caused by coronary heart disease. However, not all chest pain is angina. Chest pain can also be caused by a lung infection or panic attack, for example, so it is important to have any sudden pain checked.

Arrhythmia is the word for when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly with skipped beats. It can feel frightening, and depending on the type it can be dangerous, but in most cases arrhythmia is not serious and can be treated. It is very common, especially in older adults.

Heart valve problems can happen in any one of the the heart's four valves that keep blood flowing where it needs to go. Babies can be born with problems in their heart valves, or valves can be damaged by infections. The valves can stiffen and become less mobile, or they can stop closing properly and 'leak' when the heart beats. Valve problems can usually be repaired surgically.

This was a new patient appointment with a cardiology specialist at Providence Newberg. I had to leave a call-back number in order to schedule the appointment and was told that it was due to staffing problems. I hope that staffing issues can be resolved in the future. Other than that initial delay of a day or 2 (it was not urgent, nor life-threatening), I am very pleased with the health care that Providence Health Systems provide.

I was so relieved that Dr. Shaw listened to my concerns, especially about the medication side effects that made it impossible for me to function properly. His choice of new medications has helped with most of the symptoms. He also understood my desire to find out why I have heart problems and the need for further investigation by ordering tests. I found him easy to talk to and appreciated the time he took to explain things.

This was my very first appointment with Dr. Shaw and I was very anxious because I just found out that I had abdominal aortic Calcification-He was very kind and reassured me that I'm not going to have a heart attack anytime soon! He prescribed a heart monitor for two weeks as well as an MRI which I have yet to schedule, but I will. His manner is very easy-going and calm and friendly, which I appreciate appreciated!

I was referred to Dr. Shaw by my PCP (or his PA) based on an in person visit and stress test results. I was amazed and thankful to be able to see Dr. Shaw within a couple of days, rather than the expected wait time of several months. He was very thorough in reviewing my symptoms, history, and test results, listened carefully to my questions, and gave very clear and understandable instructions for my care.

Very engaged during office visit. I feel very confident in his care. I was a brand new patient with a very long and complicated cardiac history and he did a very good job of getting up to date and understanding my problem. The only negative was that I had to wait four months for an appointment to see him. I was having some very concerning heart issues and have a pacemaker but was not having an emergency.

I came to Dr Shaw for a second opinion after being entirely dismissed by a different provider. I was worried for the appointment given my previous poor experience trying to get some answers for my condition. However, Dr Shaw made me feel validated immediately. He was able to provide me help for something I have been dealing with for months with no answers, and I am so thankful for that.

Dr. Shaw exemplifies all the best qualities one would hope for in a physician: professional, friendly, caring, extremely knowledgable, well-informed on all issues related to patient's individual situation, etc. Verbal communication and ease in explaining relevant information excellent. Dr. Shaw is someone I have complete confidence in and would recommend highly.

My experience with Dr. Shaw was very good he was very much down to earth and made my wife and I very relaxed even though my was serious! The office staff I worked with was very accommodating in all the aspects of getting all the test and Dr appointments I needed to do. They made it as least stressful as it could possibly have been!!

Dr. Shaw was thorough and his answers to our questions were easy to understand. He also introduced me to the Framingham cardiac risk. This was my first meeting with Dr. Shaw (prior cardiologist moved away) and he is quite impressive - my wife requested an appointment for herself before leaving his office.
