Heart health isn’t a solo journey. It’s about community, support, and shared knowledge. Engage with organisations like The Heart Research Institute to stay informed and involved.
The heart, a muscular organ about the size of a fist, is our body’s engine room. It pumps blood throughout the body, supplying oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes. This relentless workhorse beats approximately 100,000 times a day, a testament to its incredible endurance and efficiency. But like any engine, it requires regular maintenance to keep it running smoothly.
Several factors can increase the risk of heart disease. However, many risk factors are lifestyle-related and, therefore, manageable. These include:

Technology plays a pivotal role in modern heart care. Wearable devices that monitor heart rate and rhythm are becoming increasingly popular. These gadgets not only help individuals track their fitness levels but can also alert them to potential heart irregularities.
Heart health is not just a personal journey; it’s a communal one. At My Doctors Clinic Surfers Paradise, we believe in building a community of care. We encourage our patients to participate in local heart health programs and support groups, fostering an environment of mutual support and encouragement.
Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to health. We are committed to educating our patients about heart health. This includes understanding the risks, recognising the symptoms of heart problems, and knowing the steps to take to maintain a healthy heart. Our website and clinic offer resources and information, making heart health education accessible to all.
