Find & Book a Cardiologist near you

A cardiologist is a medical doctor who specialises in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. This type of doctor has completed specialised training in cardiology and is qualified to provide medical care for people with conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, and arrhythmias.

In addition to diagnosing and treating these conditions, a cardiologist may provide preventative care and advice to help their patients maintain good heart health.

Some of the specific tasks that a cardiologist may include:

• Performing physical examinations and ordering tests, such as electrocardiograms (ECGs) and imaging studies, to diagnose heart conditions

• Developing and implementing treatment plans for patients with heart conditions

• Prescribing medication to manage symptoms and treat heart conditions

• Advising patients on lifestyle changes that can help improve their heart health, such as changes to their diet and exercise habits

• Referring patients to other medical specialists or surgeons if necessary

• Performing invasive procedures, such as angioplasty and coronary artery bypass surgery, to diagnose and treat heart conditions.

Overall, the primary role of a cardiologist is to provide expert care for patients with heart conditions and to help them maintain good heart health.

Cardiologists are trained to perform a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Some of the most common procedures performed by a cardiologist include:

• Electrocardiogram (ECG): This is a procedure in which a cardiologist attaches small electrodes to the chest, arms, and legs to measure the heart's electrical activity. An ECG can diagnose a heart attack, heart failure, and arrhythmias.

• Echocardiogram: This is a procedure in which a cardiologist uses ultrasound waves to create a detailed image of the heart. An echocardiogram can diagnose heart valve problems and heart muscle damage.

• Coronary angiogram: This is a procedure in which a cardiologist injects a dye into the coronary arteries and uses X-ray imaging to create a detailed image of the heart's blood vessels. A coronary angiogram can diagnose conditions such as coronary artery disease and blockages in the coronary arteries.

• Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI): This is a procedure in which a cardiologist uses a catheter (a thin, flexible tube) to access the coronary arteries and perform procedures such as angioplasty and stenting. PCI can treat conditions such as coronary artery disease and blockages in the coronary arteries.

• Cardiac catheterisation: This is a procedure in which a cardiologist inserts a catheter into a blood vessel in the leg or arm and guides it to the heart. Cardiac catheterisation can diagnose and treat heart conditions such as heart valve problems and coronary artery disease.

These are just a few examples of the many procedures that a cardiologist may perform. Each patient's needs are different, and the specific procedures performed by a cardiologist will depend on the individual circumstances of each patient.
