In Wales we have a coordinated service for the diagnosis and treatment of FH for patients and families that has been operational since 2010.
This means that we have the potential to reach and offer treatment to the 6000 people in Wales who we estimate have this condition and therefore prevent premature coronary heart disease.
Many of these individuals still go unrecognised.
This section of the website is designed to inform and support you in recognising individuals with FH, and how to manage care for individuals and their families.
