Patient story

Finding a new purpose after SCAD

Tara Benoit was an active, healthy mother of two boys when sudden chest pains changed her life forever. Despite being in excellent physical condition, she was diagnosed with a spontaneous coronary artery dissection, or SCAD, a rare condition where the coronary artery tears without warning. She received care at the Corrigan Women’s Heart Health Program at Massachusetts General Hospital, one of the few centers in the country that specializes in treating SCAD.
