There may be a reason why you wish to be screened, even though you have not suffered any symptoms related to a heart condition. For example, within your family there may be a history of heart-related illness, or you may be an athlete who is concerned about the way your sport could be affecting your heart.
The session will involve a discussion with the consultant regarding your health history and any heart conditions suffered by closely-related family members, and then you will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) test, which takes around 10 minutes. The consultant may also recommend that you have an echocardiogram, which is an additional 30 minutes.
Please refer to the individual test pages for more information.
We believe the best cardiac care can only be achieved by the best cardiologists in their fields, working together, for you and your heart. Our consultants are able to offer appointments throughout the week and at weekends.
