The love for the white coat and the desire to help those weaker than herself overcame every obstacle that faced our alumni, a young doctor. The guest of the new edition of the FH podcast is Doctor of Medicine Armina Đugum.
Armina is currently specializing in internal medicine and during her university education and later professional work, our doctor has shown a special interest in the cardiovascular system. We asked Armina what are the most common symptoms of heart failure:
The heart as an organ very often gives symptoms, it does not suffer silently. We have a rhythm disorder, we notice how our heart is beating fast. If he feels tightness in the chest area, we will connect it first to the heart. If we have high blood pressure, we will have a headache, we will have stomach problems, the urge to vomit. Our body will react. One symptom that is neglected is fatigue, shortness of breath.
Our scholarship holders, apart from their success and knowledge, are also recognizable for their aspiration towards true life values, empathy and altruism. Armina’s dedication to human health and well-being makes her an outstanding doctor capable of providing superior medical care and support to her patients. He sends us such a message:
In this call, it is essential to always show empathy. I am of the opinion that a good doctor absolutely cannot be if he does not have empathy.
