Cardiology is a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart and vascular (circulatory system) diseases.
A cardiologist — or heart specialist — helps assess heart health, identify the causes of cardiac symptoms, and, if necessary, prescribe suitable treatment and follow-up care.

Cardiologist Consultation

You should see a cardiologist if you experience:
• High blood pressure (hypertension),
• Heart rhythm disorders (irregular heartbeat, palpitations),
• Coronary artery disease (narrowing of blood vessels and circulation problems),
• Heart failure,
• Shortness of breath, chest pain, or fatigue,
• Or if you wish to have your heart health checked preventively.

The cardiologist evaluates the patient’s symptoms, health indicators, and risk factors, and provides personalized recommendations for strengthening the heart and blood vessels.

Examinations and Tests at City Health Clinic

During a cardiology consultation, it is possible to undergo various heart examinations and tests, such as:
• ECG (electrocardiogram),
• Exercise stress test to assess heart performance,
• 24-hour Holter monitoring for continuous heart activity recording,
• Blood tests to measure cholesterol, blood sugar, and other heart risk indicators,
• And, if necessary, echocardiography (heart ultrasound) or vascular studies.

The cardiologist provides a thorough overview of the heart’s condition and develops a treatment and monitoring plan to prevent the progression of cardiovascular diseases.

Why See a Cardiologist?

Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common health issues, but with early diagnosis and proper treatment, they can be effectively managed.
If you experience blood pressure fluctuations, heart palpitations, chest pain, or are simply concerned about your heart health, make an appointment with a cardiologist.
