When I started my cardiology training, back in 1976, cardiology in the Netherlands was highly dependent on internal medicine. Coronary care and intensive care units were led by internal medicine physicians in most hospitals in the Netherlands whereas in the US (where I had worked for a while) cardiology was a discipline in its own right, at least in university centres. In our country, this changed rapidly in the ensuing years and the Netherlands Society of Cardiology (NVVC) played a key role in this process.
