Frequently asked questions

What does a cardiologist do?

A cardiologist diagnoses and treats conditions of the heart and blood vessels, including chest pain, high blood pressure, heart rhythm problems, heart failure and coronary artery disease, using tests such as ECG, echocardiography and angiography.

When should I see a cardiologist?

Consider a cardiology consultation if you have chest discomfort, shortness of breath or palpitations, or risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol or a family history of heart disease.

Do I need a referral to see a KPJ cardiologist?

A referral is not always required to book a private consultation at KPJ, though a referral letter and any previous test results help the specialist assess you more quickly.

What heart tests and procedures are available at KPJ?

KPJ cardiology services range from ECG, echocardiography and stress testing to coronary angiography, angioplasty and stenting, and pacemaker implantation, depending on your condition.
