Many people reach a time in life when they want to have the reassurance that all is well with their health. Often this is because they are about to embark on new activity or lifestyle change. At Top of the South Cardiology we have given a lot of thought to how we can offer that reassurance to you. We don’t believe that a simple blood test or blood pressure measurement alone is adequate, we feel that our one stop healthy heart check offers one of the most comprehensive non-invasive assessments of you heart.

The Healthy Heart check includes

  • Consultation and examination by a consultant cardiologist.
  • Blood pressure check
  • Blood tests for kidney, liver and thyroid function. Full blood count (excludes anaemia) and cholesterol measurements.
  • 12 lead Electrocardiogram 
  • An stress echocardiogram. This has the advantages of an Exercise tolerance test and echocardiogram. By combining the two techniques we not only look for evidence of coronary artery disease and structural heart problems but can also look to target which if any arteries are the cause of any problems.
  • Full review or all investigations with consultant cardiologist.

Providing patients attend for the blood test prior to the main consultation the whole heart check can take place in one sitting and normally takes about an hour to hour and a half.
