    Cardiologists, or heart specialists, diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases. Their expertise includes assessing heart health and interpreting tests such as electrocardiograms.
    Consult a cardiologist if your primary care physician recommends it due to symptoms such as shortness of breath, dizziness, chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or hypertension. Cardiovascular health is crucial; timely consultation is important for effective heart disease management.
    Your initial consultation with a cardiologist will involve a comprehensive review of your medical history and cardiovascular risk factors. A physical examination will be conducted, including assessment of your blood pressure, heart rate, and an electrocardiogram (ECG). This complete cardiovascular assessment helps determine your heart health.
    Cardiologists use various diagnostic tests to identify blocked arteries. These include cholesterol screening, electrocardiogram (ECG), chest X-ray, coronary CT angiography, ultrasound, echocardiogram, and cardiac angiography. These tests help assess heart health and identify arterial blockages.
    Direct consultation with a cardiologist is recommended if you have a family history of early-onset heart disease (under 55 for men, under 65 for women). A cardiologist can evaluate your risk and provide appropriate treatment for genetically related heart conditions.
