Echocardiogram

Service Description

A private echocardiogram – also known as an echo or heart scan – uses sound waves to build up a detailed picture of your heart. It is similar an ultrasound scan used in pregnancy, but with a special probe related to the heart, meeting the latest, highest standards. It is safe and provides a more accurate picture of your heart than ECGs. The test is painless and without side effects. It does not use radioactivity. The test is conducted by Cardiologist specialised and accredited in Echocardiogram not a physiologist. If you want you can add a Specialist Consultation by choosing our Silver Plan. During the consultation the doctor is listening carefully to the patient's heart issues, guides the patient through medical questions for risk stratification and clinically examine the patient in order to have a comprehensive picture of his health and well being. This process will take 20-30min extra time.
