High blood pressure
High blood pressure (hypertension) occurs when blood constantly pushes through your vessels too hard, even when you’re resting.
Over time, this can cause damage, which may lead to issues such as a heart attack or stroke. However, it’s easily manageable with our unique approach to maximising lifestyle modification along with conventional medical therapy where necessary.
High cholesterol
High cholesterol is when there is a build-up of the fatty substance called cholesterol in your blood. There are two types of cholesterol, ‘good’ high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and ‘bad’ non-high-density lipoproteins (non-HDL).
A build-up of ‘bad’ cholesterol can lead to serious heart problems such as a heart attack or stroke. We can assess your risk and help you reduce it with personalised preventative treatment plans.
Heart disease
Heart disease is an umbrella term for a list of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. These include:
- Arrhythmia
- Atherosclerosis
- Cardiomyopathy (heart muscle disease)
- Congenital heart defects
- Coronary artery disease
- Heart infections
If left untreated, heart disease can lead to serious complications such as a pulmonary embolism, heart failure, heart attack, or stroke. Take control of your health today and prevent heart disease in the future.
Atrial fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation develops because of an issue in the conduction system that controls the heartbeat. This can lead to problems with how your heart beats, either too slow, fast, or irregularly.
If your heart beats irregularly, this can affect how blood is pumped around the body, leading to further issues such as blood clots. If untreated, blood clots can lead to serious complications such as stroke. We combine expert diagnosis and treatment of rhythm disorders with a focus on addressing underlying triggers, including stress, sleep and more.
Symptoms we investigate
Unsure what your symptoms mean? Seeing a heart specialist early is the surest way to get to the bottom of them. Start with the symptom concerning you most, or use our symptom finder.
Popular tests
Electrocardiogram (ECG)
An ECG is a test that measures and records your heart’s electrical activity and rhythm, including the strength and speed of your heartbeat.
We use them as part of our initial assessment to detect and diagnose issues such as abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia), cardiomyopathy, coronary heart disease and heart structure changes.
24-hour blood pressure monitor
Also known as an ambulatory blood pressure monitor, this is a wearable monitor that takes blood pressure readings over 24 hours to accurately test blood pressure during your daily routines.
We recommend this when we need a more accurate picture of your heart.
Stress echocardiogram
An echocardiogram uses sound waves to help build a picture of your heart’s structure. This helps us understand how blood flows through your arteries and veins, and how well your heart pumps.
