Why You Should See A Heart Specialist Today
Early Detection
Heart disease can develop silently. A heart specialist can detect early warning signs and help prevent heart attacks or strokes.
Get Answers and the Right Treatment
Having chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, or fatigue? An experienced cardiologist can diagnose the cause and provide appropriate treatment.
Personalised Risk Assessment
Not all hearts are the same. A heart specialist can tailor individualised care to your unique risk factors and lifestyle.
Peace of Mind
Seeing a cardiologist offers reassurance – because knowing is better than guessing.
Don’t wait for chest pain or breathlessness.
A heart screening can reveal silent artery narrowing early—so you can take action before it becomes an emergency.

Electrocardiogram (ECG)
Records your heart rhythm and electrical activity at rest to identify irregularities or signs of underlying heart conditions.
Ambulatory ECG / Heart Rhythm Monitor
Wearable device that detects abnormal heart rhythms as they occur during normal daily activities.
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitor
Tracks your blood pressure continuously over 24 hours to measure your daily BP pattern.
Treadmill Exercise Stress Test
Physical stress test to evaluate how your heart responds to stress.
Echocardiography
Non-invasive ultrasound that visualizes your heart’s structure and function.
Exercise Stress Echocardiography
Combines exercise with ultrasound imaging to assess how well your heart performs under strain.
Carotid Intima Media Thickening Scan
Ultrasound scan to measure the inner layer thickness of neck arteries and detect blockages to assess risk of future heart disease.
CT Calcium Score & CT Coronary Angiography
Non-invasive scan to assess calcium deposits in your arteries to determine cardiovascular risk, and detailed visualisation of vessels to detect blockages.
Myocardial Perfusion Scan
Evaluates blood flow to your heart muscle.
Cardiac MRI
Non-invasive imaging technique to diagnose heart structural abnormalities.
Coronary Angiogram
Minimally invasive procedure to detect narrowed or blocked arteries.
Coronary Angioplasty / Stenting
Improves blood flow to your heart by using a balloon catheter to open up blocked arteries.

How it works
See Your Heart in Action with Exercise Stress Echocardiogram (ESE)
A resting ECG or ultrasound can only show so much. An ESE looks at the heart as it works harder, helping your doctor spot narrowings or valve issues that stay hidden while you are at rest.
01
Baseline Scan (resting ultrasound)
- You lie on your left side while your cardiologist captures clear images of the heart walls and valves at rest.
Treadmill Stage (graded exercise)
- Under continuous ECG and blood-pressure monitoring, you walk or jog as the speed and incline increase in pre-set stages.
- The goal is to raise your heart rate to a safe target that reveals how the muscle copes with extra demand.
02
Immediate post-exercise scan (stress images)
- Within seconds of stepping off the treadmill, you return to the couch for a second ultrasound.
- This allows your cardiologist to compare “before” and “after” frames side by side, revealing areas that struggle with blood flow under stress.
03
Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
When should I see a Cardiologist?
You should see a cardiologist if you experience symptoms such as:
- chest pain
- shortness of breath
- heart palpitations
- dizziness or lightheadedness
- unexplained fatigue, especially when it’s new or worsening
Individuals with a history of heart disease in your family, are smokers or have other risk factors should also consider doing a thorough heart check.
What is an Exercise Stress Echocardiogram?
See how your heart performs under pressure—safely, clearly, and in real time.
An exercise stress echocardiogram combines a standard treadmill exercise test with ultrasound imaging of the heart to assess how your heart functions when working harder. It is considered more accurate than a standard treadmill test for detecting and evaluating coronary artery disease.
01
Baseline Ultrasound Scan (Resting Echocardiogram)
- You lie on your left side while we use ultrasound to capture images of your heart, assessing its function and checking for any valve problems.
- An echocardiogram is safe, non-invasive and radiation-free.
Treadmill Test (Exercise Stress)
- Under continuous ECG and blood pressure monitoring, you walk or jog as the speed and incline increase at pre-set stages.
- The goal is to raise your heart rate to a safe target to see how your heart responds to physical stress.
- Don’t worry if you’re unable to run - there are alternative methods to safely stress the heart if needed.
02
Immediate Post-Exercise Ultrasound Scan (Stress Echocardiogram)
- As soon as you finish the treadmill test, you return to the bed for a second ultrasound scan.
- This allows your cardiologist to compare resting and post-exercise stress images, helping to identify any areas of the heart that become weaker under stress – a possible sign of significant heart artery blockages.
03
What are the benefits of an Exercise Stress Echocardiogram?
Structure and Function in One Scan
Ultrasound shows the heart’s walls, valves and pumping action while you exercise.
Improve Accuracy and Sensitivity
Higher specificity compared to a standard treadmill exercise stress test for more accurate diagnosis and evaluation of coronary artery disease.
Non-Invasive and Radiation-Free
No needles, contrast agents or radiation, and you can return to your normal routine straight after.
How soon can I get an appointment?
We offer appointments within 24 hours on Mondays to Fridays, and on Saturday mornings.
How should I prepare for my visit?
Please bring along any previous medical reports, scans, and blood test reports for your appointment.
How long will a heart screening take?
Please set aside 2 hours for a heart screening medical appointment, which will give your cardiologist sufficient time to explain the test results to you thoroughly.
