Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a leading cause of death worldwide, claiming over 20.5 million lives annually. Early detection, awareness and simple life-style changes can help prevent 80% of these premature CVD deaths. 

Thus, in recognition of World Heart Day, NMC Healthcare, one of the largest private healthcare networks in the UAE, is offering free health checks to UAE residents on 29^th September 2024, at select malls and community shopping centres across the country.
