ECG (electrocardiography)
Detailed analysis of heart rhythm; the first step in catching rhythm disorders early.
OUR DEPARTMENTS
Cardiology
We cover the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of heart and vascular disease with ECG, echocardiography, exercise stress testing and Holter monitoring. For most studies, assessment and results can be completed the same day.
Tests and services
Echocardiography (echo)
Detailed ultrasound imaging of the heart valves, chambers and circulatory function.
Exercise (stress) test
Measuring the heart's response to physical activity on a treadmill; screening for coronary artery disease.
Holter — rhythm and blood pressure
Uninterrupted 24–72 hour monitoring to detect hidden rhythm disorders and unstable blood pressure.
Heart failure and hypertension follow-up
Regular review in chronic heart disease and adjustment of treatment as needs change.
Coronary artery disease assessment
Risk analysis for those with chest pain, discomfort on exertion, or a family history of early heart disease.
Rhythm disorders
Diagnosis and treatment of palpitations and irregular heartbeat using advanced testing.

Why our cardiology department?
Specialist medical team
Our cardiologist assesses and treats in line with current guidelines.
Equipment on site
Every core cardiac study — ECG, echocardiography, Holter and exercise stress testing — is done at our centre.
Treatment built around you
Every patient's cardiac picture is different; treatment is planned accordingly.
Same-day results
For most studies, assessment and results are completed the same day.
Preventive cardiology
The aim is to identify and control risk factors before disease develops.
Frequently asked questions
Which complaints should bring me to a cardiologist?
Come to us for chest pain or tightness, shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness and fainting, high blood pressure, heavy sweating and fatigue — and also if you carry risk factors such as a family history of early heart disease, diabetes or high cholesterol.
Are echocardiography and the exercise test painful?
No. Echocardiography uses ultrasound and is painless. The exercise test is no more than walking on a treadmill, with a doctor and health staff beside you throughout.
How should I prepare for the exercise test?
Avoid a heavy meal in the 2–3 hours before the test, and bring comfortable clothes and trainers. Always ask your doctor before stopping any heart medication.
Can I carry on with daily life while wearing the Holter monitor?
Yes. You are asked to live your day as usual; you only need to avoid showering and must not remove the device. Once the recording period ends, our doctor reviews it.
Don't put off your heart check
If you have chest pain, palpitations or high blood pressure, book an appointment for a cardiology assessment.
