What cardiology covers

Cardiology is the assessment and treatment of conditions of the heart and blood vessels. In practice it includes heart tests, review of blood pressure and rhythm problems, and long-term follow-up for people with known heart conditions.

Who provides it

A cardiologist is a doctor with specialist training in heart disease. Within cardiology there are sub-specialties such as heart rhythm or interventional work, and cardiac surgeons operate on the heart. Physiologists or technicians usually perform tests such as ECGs and echocardiograms. General practitioners often manage blood pressure and refer when specialist input is needed. HealthNaro lists the specialty Cardiology.

Main services

Listed services are cardiology consultations and ECG and echocardiogram. A profile shows a service only when the provider has told us it is offered.

How to choose a provider

  • Confirm registration with the national medical regulator and ask for the specialist qualification.
  • Read the verification label: Public listing, Contact verified, Reviewed by HealthNaro or Credentials verified. Labels describe what we checked and do not rate care.
  • Ask which tests are on site and who reads and explains the results.
  • Ask how urgent concerns are handled out of hours, and which hospital the cardiologist works with if admission is needed.
  • Ask how reports are shared with your general doctor.

What to prepare

List your symptoms, when they happen and what you were doing. Bring earlier ECGs, scan reports and blood test results, and a list of all medicines. Note any family history of heart conditions. Wear clothing that is easy to remove from the chest for an ECG. Do not send medical records through HealthNaro forms.

Cost, insurance and access

Fees depend on the tests ordered, the setting and whether the visit is a first consultation or a review, so ask for an estimate that lists each test. If you use insurance, ask whether the clinic is on your insurer's list and whether pre-authorisation is needed for tests such as an echocardiogram. HealthNaro does not show prices unless a source and date are supplied. Check step access and parking if mobility is a concern.

Questions fréquentes

Do I need a referral to see a cardiologist?
Often a general doctor refers you, but some clinics accept direct bookings. Ask the clinic, and check whether your insurer requires a referral.
What is the difference between a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon?
A cardiologist is a doctor who diagnoses and treats heart conditions, mostly without surgery. A cardiac surgeon performs operations on the heart and nearby vessels.
Where can I have an ECG or echocardiogram?
Some cardiology clinics and hospitals provide them on site; others refer to a diagnostic centre. Check the services shown on each profile.
What if I have chest pain right now?
Chest pain can be an emergency. Call your local emergency number or go to the nearest emergency department. HealthNaro is not an emergency service.
Is the request service free?
Yes. HealthNaro does not charge patients.
