I believe cardiologists addressing mental health can lead to better heart outcomes, as stress and depression often worsen heart disease. But without proper training, it risks mismanagement so collaboration with mental health professionals is essential, not full responsibility shift.

Mental health is linked to heart health, so cardiologists should help. But mental doctors are experts, so both should work together.
