Dragon's Den Co-star To Help Raise Money For Heart Centre

How best to treat patients suffering from cardiovascular disease will be the focus of the 22nd annual heart symposium at the Regional Hospital starting tomorrow and running through Saturday.

The Head of the New Brunswick Heart Centre, Dr. Marc Pelletier concedes the health care system is struggling as the cost of drugs and technology keeps getting more expensive with hospitals depending more and more on outside sources of revenue to keep up to date.


There's a fundraiser Friday night for the Heart Centre featuring speakers Mark Black, a heart and double transplant recipient turned marathon runner and Arlene Dickinson of the TV series "Dragon's Den".
