Frequently Asked Questions
When should I see a cardiologist?
Consult a cardiologist if you have chest pain, breathlessness on exertion, palpitations, unexplained fatigue, swelling of the legs, or a family history of heart disease, diabetes or high cholesterol.
Is an ECG or Echo test painful?
No. Both ECG and 2D Echocardiography are completely painless, non-invasive tests that take only a few minutes and require no admission.
What should I do if someone has a heart attack?
Call our 24/7 emergency line immediately, keep the patient calm and seated, loosen tight clothing and bring them to the nearest emergency department without delay. Every minute matters.
