What to expect at your first appointment

The cardiologist reviews your history and risk factors, and performs a physical exam that includes listening to your heart and checking your blood pressure.

Depending on your case, they may order an EKG, echocardiogram, or other tests — you can learn more about these studies in our Cardiology services section.

Based on the results, they'll explain a treatment and follow-up plan, which may include lifestyle changes, medication, or further testing.

Frequently asked questions

At what age should I get a heart checkup?

A first evaluation is generally recommended around age 30-40 if you have no risk factors, and earlier if you have a family history, hypertension, or diabetes.

Does an EKG hurt?

No. It's a quick, non-invasive test that records your heart's electrical activity using electrodes placed on your skin.

Is chest pain always the heart?

Not always, but any new or severe chest pain, or pain with shortness of breath, sweating, or arm pain, should be evaluated right away at Emergency Care.

Can heart disease be prevented?
Largely, yes. Controlling blood pressure and cholesterol, not smoking, staying active, and maintaining a healthy weight significantly reduce your risk.
