My health Journey
There is a particular kind of confidence that only comes from experience. Dr. Tungare began practising cardiology in Goregaon when most of his current patients were children. He has watched the neighbourhood grow, watched families come back generation after generation, and watched heart disease become younger and more common with every passing decade.
He does not practise cardiology from a textbook. He practises it from four decades of watching what actually happens to real people in Mumbai — their diets, their stress, their working hours, their family histories, and their reluctance to slow down until the body forces them to.
If you are looking for a cardiologist who will spend time understanding your history rather than rushing you through a checklist, you have found the right clinic.
Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, had described the body’s ability to heal itself, which he called veriditas (green life force). He believed that the physician’s job was to identify which forces were keeping the patient from healing himself and then remove them.
