– Dr. Thomas Alexander, Head, Dept of Cardiology, KMCH
The theme of this year is to use our heart to beat Heart Disease. It urges us to use our heads to understand how to live a healthy life and act on that knowledge, and as a result of that change our behavior for a better quality of life.
As doctors we should also inspire those around us – our family members, loved ones, co-workers, patients and their relatives. We need to use our compassion to take care of those who are vulnerable to heart disease and help those who come from weaker part of the socio-economic circle.
