“Chest Pain is not always a heart attack & a Heart Attack does not always start with chest pain”.For many of us, Heart Attack is the face of Heart Disease thatwe are familiar with. We don’t realise that Heart disease can affect anypart of the heart – its muscles, valves, electrical systems or bloodvessels. And it can happen at any time or any age because mostof the time we don’t recognise the signals of the build-up.We can detect, prevent or stop it at an early stage withadvanced Interventional Cardiology, provided theprocedures are done by trained specialists with the rightfacilities. The MIOT Centre for Interventional Cardiology focuses on providing patient friendly solutions that treat heart disease completely and protect the patient’s long term quality of life.
