It’s ! Kindness isn’t just good for others—it’s good for you! 💛 Research shows that showing kindness can:

🌿 Reduce stress, anxiety and depression
😊 Increase happiness and life satisfaction
🤝 Strengthen relationships and community
💪 Even support physical health by lowering stress

And here’s something amazing—kindness is actually contagious. When we witness kindness, we’re more likely to pay it forward. Every small act matters: a smile, a helping hand, a kind word.

Spread a little today—you might just make someone’s day (and improve your own).

My goal is to meet patients where they are in their health care journey, care for them as if they were my own family, and build relationships with them as I watch them grow and celebrate their milestones.”

We are excited to share that Saint Joseph Medical Group – Cardiology in London has welcomed Syed Rashid, MD, to its team.

Dr. Rashid joins the London team from New York City and brings a deep passion for cardiology. He earned his Bachelor of Science in life science from the University of Toronto in Mississauga, Canada, before completing his medical degree at Poznan University of Medical Sciences in Poznan, Poland. He went on to complete post-graduate training and research at several medical centers in New York.

At the core of Dr. Rashid’s patient care philosophy is trust and collaboration. “The most important thing is building a relationship where the patient trusts you. It’s important for patients and doctors to work together rather than telling the patient what to do.”

Welcome to the team, Dr. Rashid!
