First, the patient

Is the scalpel a last resort in heart disease? Who should the patient turn to with hypertension problems? Is this a task for the family doctor or the cardiologist? And how many heart attacks can a person actually survive?

In the upcoming episode of the podcast 'First the patient', host Monika Rachtan talks to Professor Michał Zembala, a prominent cardiac surgeon, about the role of the scalpel in saving lives.
