Intensely politicized in the broader progressive space and ahead of efforts to create a hemodynamic center at the Achillopouleio Hospital in Volos was the director of the Alexandros Douras Cardiology Clinic, who was found hanged in his home last night.
Medical work and action with the public
The death, attributed according to the first reports to a suicide, of the beloved cardiologist plunged the medical community and many citizens into deep mourning, who knew him for his great medical work and his intense action with the public.
As taxydromos.gr points out, Alexandros Douras passed away at the age of 61. He became director of the Cardiology Clinic five years ago.
During his tenure, the Cardiology Center was significantly improved, resulting in Achillopouleio becoming a major Cardiology Center.
Thanks to their tireless efforts, a permanent pacemaker implantation center is operating.
Highly politicized
He was also in charge of the creation of a hemodynamic center in Achillopouleio, a project that is in the process of being implemented and is expected to relieve hundreds of cardiac patients who to date for a coronary angiography have emigrated outside the Prefecture.
Intensively politicized in the broader progressive area, in early 2000 he ran for councilor for Democratic Cooperation in the municipality of Volos with A. Finikopoulos running for mayor.
He was elected municipal councilor with the Streets of Cooperation led by Margaritis Patsiantas, and was also an active member of the Together for Volos faction.
Father of two children
He worked in the hospital first as an apprentice and then as a specialist since the 1990s.
For many years he was also a member of the Achillopouleio Scientific Council.
He was the father of two children, a boy and a girl.
