Prof. Ehud Goldhammer has his expertise in exercise physiology and cardiac rehabilitation, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and and heart failure patient's rehabilitation in particular. His passion in improving the health and wellbeing of coronary artery patients led him to establish (1982) the first cardiac rehabilitation center in the northern part of Israel, encouraging women, elderly, old people, and minorities to join cardiac rehabilitation programs. Since the establishment of this center he tried to promote exercise programs for obese, diabetic, hypertensive, and heart failure patients. Most of his research projects were done in exercise physiology, in the various subsets of coronary artery disease patients (diabetics, obese, hypertensive, and heart failure patients).
