Frequently Asked Questions
What symptoms should prompt a cardiology referral?
Chest pain or pressure, palpitations, unexplained shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, and swelling in the legs are all symptoms that warrant evaluation by a cardiologist. A primary care provider can help determine whether a referral is appropriate.
What is an echocardiogram and do I need one?
An echocardiogram uses ultrasound to create images of the heart's structure and function. It is ordered when a cardiologist needs to assess valve function, heart muscle performance, or structural abnormalities that cannot be fully evaluated by ECG alone.
How can I reduce my risk of heart disease?
Key modifiable risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, elevated LDL cholesterol, physical inactivity, excess body weight, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular check-ups, medication when appropriate, and lifestyle modifications all contribute to meaningful risk reduction.
