With his more than 30 years of experience as an endocrinologist, Dr Patwardhan realized how stress is one of the most important factors causing a plethora of diseases such as Diabetes, Metabolic syndrome, Ischaemic heart disease etc, and at the same time he became aware of the ignorance and lack of knowledge about the same.
