On this edition of The Pulse, we’re diving into the legendary healers of Olympus—figures like Apollo and Asclepius, whose stories still echo throughout the ages. Their wisdom, resilience, and dedication to healing mirror the journey of every medical professional today. We will also be featuring famous demigods such as Hercules and Achilles as we talk about the struggles they faced and how it may be interpreted in today’s world of modern medicine. In this issue:

· Asclepius’s Deeds – The great acts he performed and the price he paid in atonement.

· Hercules’s Madness – An act of a vengeful goddess, or something more sinister?

· Apollo’s Light – While it did shine brightly, was it always just and impartial?

Medicine is as much an art as it is a science, and the lessons of mythology remind us that healing goes beyond just treating symptoms—it’s about understanding, compassion, and lifelong learning.
