ABOUT

About LipidCurious
LipidCurious is for trainees and clinicians like you — those who want more than LDL-C targets and generic treatment algorithms.
Each short episode unpacks a lipid topic — from triglycerides to lipoproteins — with clear science and real-world clinical insight.
Why I Created It
Like many clinicians, I learned to interpret lipid panels by goal values — but not always how to interpret the deeper risk signals they hold. LipidCurious was created to bridge that gap: to bring clarity to a topic that's often overlooked but critical to cardiometabolic care. I want to empower fellow clinicians to approach lipids with confidence and make decisions that truly change outcomes.
If you’ve ever asked “What do I actually do with this lipid panel?” — this podcast is for you!
About Me
I’m Dr. Vishnu Priya Pulipati — a board-certified Endocrinologist and Lipidologist, with training in preventive cardiology. That dual lens reshaped how I practice — and sparked my mission to share the power of lipid clarity with you.

Lipid management is everywhere, but practical tools?
Not so much.
Let’s be honest! Lipid management can get confusing — multiple guidelines, changing targets, complicated panels, and a dozen acronyms that blur together by Friday.You’ve got patients, inboxes, and zero bandwidth for wading through guideline overload.That’s why I created the FREE LipidCurious Starter Kit
