Spreading Holiday Joy: AKMG Canada Launches Toy Drive with CP24 CHUM Christmas Wish!

We are thrilled to share the successful inauguration of the new AKMG Canada leadership team with an initiative close to our hearts: a holiday toy drive to bring joy and support to children and families in need this holiday season. In a wonderful demonstration of our commitment to community service, AKMG Canada partnered with the renowned CP24 CHUM Christmas Wish Toy Drive. This collaboration marks a fantastic start for our newly appointed leadership, showcasing their dedication to making a tangible difference right from the outset.
This inaugural event was spearheaded by our dynamic new executive team: President: Dr. Iqbal Vadakkayil Secretary: Dr. Sumesh Murali Treasurer: Dr. Ajoi Vincent Under their guidance, the AKMG Canada family rallied together with incredible enthusiasm and generosity.
Thanks to the overwhelming support and kind contributions from our members and the community, we were able to collect a fantastic total of 80 toys! Each toy represents a spark of hope and happiness for a child who deserves a magical Christmas.
Today, the dedicated team from the CP24 CHUM Christmas Wish picked up the collected toys, ready to distribute them to families across the Greater Toronto Area. We extend our deepest gratitude to the CP24 CHUM team for their tireless work and for allowing us to be a part of this vital campaign. We want to express our sincere appreciation to everyone who donated. Your generosity has ensured that this year’s toy drive was a tremendous success and a beautiful way to kick off our new leadership's tenure. This initiative is just the beginning. The new AKMG Canada leadership team is committed to engaging in meaningful community service and upholding the values of compassion and support. We look forward to many more opportunities to give back throughout the coming year. Happy Holidays from the entire AKMG Canada team!

The Only One in the Room: Dr. Devi Nair

When people ask what it is like to be a woman in interventional electrophysiology, I tell them the truth: for most of my career, I was the only one at the table. Not the only woman in the EP lab; nurses, techs, and coordinators have always been the backbone of every EP lab I have worked in, but the only woman standing in lead, with the catheters in her hands. That has changed. It has not changed enough. Cardiology remains one of the least gender-balanced fields in medicine, and the procedural subspecialties EP, interventional, structural are the narrowest part of that funnel. We are not short on talented women entering medical school. We lose them somewhere between the classroom and the lab. I have thought a lot about where that loss happens, and I no longer believe it is mostly about ability or even about ambition. It is about permission, the quiet, cumulative sense of whether a room expects you to be in it. The room does not hand you authority ... Early on, I learned that bei...

From Tampa to Timeless Japan: A Journey Through Culture, Speed, and Soul Easter 2026

Reena Kavilaveettil MD Traveling with Family and Friends from Tampa Brown Bears I. Arrival — Tokyo in Full Bloom Our journey began in Tampa, with excitement packed tighter than our suitcases. As the plane lifted into the early morning sky on Easter Day, we left behind the familiar warmth of home, heading toward a land where tradition and technology coexist in perfect harmony — Tokyo. Tokyo welcomed us not just with its dazzling lights, but with a rare gift: cherry blossoms in full bloom. Walking through Ueno Park, we found ourselves beneath a canopy of soft pink sakura petals. The air felt lighter, almost magical, as families gathered, laughter echoed, and petals fell gently like nature's own confetti. We felt incredibly fortunate to witness the fleeting beauty of sakura — Japan's most poetic season. II. Temples, Palaces, and the Soul of the City Our Tokyo tour began at the serene Meiji Shrine, nestled within a beautifully forested area that honors Emperor Meiji — th...

AKMG WOMEN IN MEDICINE SERIES 2026

  Women in Medicine — A Story of Many  I am a woman. A woman in medicine. An immigrant mother in medicine. Sometimes I wonder what my life might have been like if I had been born as a man. Would the responsibilities have been different? Would the struggles have been different? Would the road I travelled have been a little easier? I will never know. But I have come to believe that equality does not necessarily mean that men and women must be the same. I believe in something closer to gender neutrality - the freedom to be different without being considered less. I know there are things my husband does for our family that I struggle to do. I cannot change the oil in the car. I cannot change a tire. I have tried to understand investments and finances, but somehow my brain refuses to cooperate. I have enormous respect for women who can do those things. A women can. A woman is no less capable than a man. But I am also comfortable admitting that there are things I cannot do. Perhaps ...
