Frequently Asked Questions

Your most common heart-care questions answered clearly and simply.

What symptoms should prompt me to see a cardiologist?â–¼

You should consult a cardiologist if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, fainting spells, or if you have risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease.

How should I prepare for my first cardiology appointment?â–¼

Bring a list of current medications, any previous medical records or test results, information about family history of heart disease, and a list of symptoms you've been experiencing. It's also helpful to write down any questions you want to ask.

What is an echocardiogram and why might I need one?â–¼

An echocardiogram is an ultrasound of your heart that shows how your heart muscle and valves are working. It's used to diagnose various heart conditions, assess heart function, and monitor existing heart problems. The test is painless and typically takes 30–60 minutes.

How often should I have my heart checked?â–¼

For healthy adults, a general cardiovascular check-up every 2–3 years is recommended after age 40. However, if you have risk factors or existing heart conditions, your cardiologist may recommend more frequent visits, typically every 3–6 months.

What lifestyle changes can improve my heart health?â–¼

Key lifestyle modifications include regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, eating a heart-healthy diet, limiting sodium and saturated fats, managing stress, avoiding tobacco, and limiting alcohol consumption.

What is the difference between a heart attack and cardiac arrest?â–¼

A heart attack occurs when blood flow to part of the heart is blocked. Cardiac arrest is when the heart suddenly stops beating due to an electrical malfunction.

Are heart procedures covered by insurance?â–¼

Most diagnostic tests and necessary treatments are covered by insurance, but coverage varies by plan. Contact your insurance provider before your appointment.

What is atrial fibrillation and how is it treated?â–¼

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an irregular heartbeat that increases stroke risk. Treatment options include medications, blood thinners, cardioversion, and catheter ablation.
