Balady is director of BMC's Preventive Cardiology Program, a leading exercise-training and risk-factor modification program for patients who have heart disease. He is also director of the Non-Invasive Cardiovascular Laboratories at BMC.

Balady is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation and the American Heart Association (AHA). He serves the AHA both nationally and locally by leading and/or participating on several key committees involved with exercise, physical activity and preventive cardiology. He is past chairman of the AHA's Council on Clinical Cardiology, and past president of the AHA Greater Boston Division.

Balady has either chaired or been a member of several writing groups of the AHA and ACC, which generates guidelines regarding exercise testing and training, and preventive cardiology. Balady currently serves on the AHA Founders Affiliate's Board of Directors.

Balady, who received his medical degree from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School of New Brunswick, N. J. performed his cardiology residency and fellowship at Boston Medical Center.
