ParkCity Medical Centre Reminds Malaysians to Care for Their Heart

 Mega heart on display in conjunction with World Heart Day

As cardiovascular diseases continue to be the leading cause of death in the country, ParkCity Medical Centre (PMC) is going all out to raise awareness among Malaysians on the importance of heart health. In conjunction with World Heart Day, the hospital has on display a massive 26-foot replica of the vital organ, which the public can walk through for a truly immersive experience.

The mega heart is part of PMC’s ongoing Healthy Heart Campaign this year which was rolled out in partnership with healthcare company Viatris. The campaign ends on September 30, 2021.

Ms Ch’ng Lin Ling, Chief Executive Officer of PMC, said, “Cardiovascular diseases do not discriminate against age or gender. With many being diagnosed at a younger age, our ‘A Hearty Deal’ campaign aims to encourage the public to keep an eye on their heart health and be aware of how behavioural, social, environmental and biological risk factors can contribute to the development of the diseases. We are also pleased to be collaborating with Viatris this year. The mega heart allows for a tactile experience to help people better understand how the organ works and to strive to stay healthy, especially during these challenging times.”

Located at the hospital lobby, visitors can take a guided walk through the replica of the vital organ to comprehend how the human heart keeps ticking. The mega heart will be on display until 11 September 2021.

With a team of fully vaccinated doctors and staff, PMC continues to adhere to strict compliance with the Ministry of Health’s Standard Operating Procedures to ensure the safety of patients, public, doctors and staff at its premises.

The first 15 patients to register for PMC’s special heart healthcare package this month will receive a free stress test. For more information on the Healthy Heart campaign, one can call the 24-hour Careline at 03 5639 1212.

    The Loan Fund worked extensively with me to help me anticipate some of the issues that my business may face. Not many lenders would go to that length. They’ve been extremely supportive and a great resource.
    Working with Mr Pedro helped me develop my business plan, ideas and brand before getting started, so I was prepared to open a successful business when I received my loan from Mr Pedro, a loan officer with a huge heart of honesty.

According to the National Cancer Institute Malaysia, about 5,000 Malaysian women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, and nearly half of those are under 50-years of age, but it affects men too. It is indeed unbelievable but it is happening now in Malaysia. As a male blogger and influencer, it is my duty to raise awareness to all the male out there. Do take note that there are things you may not know about breast cancer in men: 1 out 1,000 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Malaysia Less than 72% of men recover from the disease as doctor’s visit is made when symptoms are more severe however symptoms of breast cancer in men and women are quite alike. Most male breast cancers are diagnosed when a man discovers a lump on his chest. But unlike women, men tend to delay going to the doctor until they have more severe symptoms, like bleeding from the nipple. At that point, the cancer may have already spread Because men have very little breast tissue, it is
