Cardiology Investigations Clinic

Cardiac screening plays an important role in identifying potential heart conditions at an early stage, helping patients access prompt diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management where needed. Our cardiac assessment services are ideal for anyone looking to take a proactive approach to their cardiovascular health, particularly those with a family history of heart disease, inherited cardiac conditions, or sudden cardiac death. Early heart screening can provide reassurance, support preventative care, and help reduce future health risks.

A cardiac risk assessment provides a comprehensive overview of your cardiovascular health, helping to identify potential risk factors for conditions such as heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, and raised cholesterol levels. This preventative heart health check is suitable for individuals with a family history of cardiac conditions, existing lifestyle risk factors, or anyone seeking reassurance about their long-term heart health. At Dundonald Consulting Rooms, our assessments are designed to support early detection, informed lifestyle changes, and proactive management of cardiovascular wellbeing.

24-hour heart rhythm assessments are designed to detect irregularities in the electrical activity of the heart, helping to identify conditions that may increase the risk of complications such as stroke or other cardiovascular problems. These investigations are particularly useful for patients experiencing symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, fainting episodes, or unexplained fatigue. At Dundonald Consulting Rooms, we offer both resting electrocardiograms (ECG) and ambulatory Holter monitoring to assess heart rhythm over an extended period, allowing us to identify issues including atrial fibrillation (AF), irregular heartbeats, pauses, and unusually fast or slow heart rhythms with greater accuracy.

An active stand test is a non-invasive assessment that measures how your heart rate and blood pressure respond to standing. It can help investigate symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, palpitations, and suspected conditions including POTS and postural hypotension.

An echocardiogram is a detailed, non-invasive heart ultrasound used to assess the structure and function of the heart and its valves. This advanced cardiac scan can help investigate symptoms such as chest discomfort, shortness of breath, dizziness, or heart palpitations, while providing valuable insight into overall heart health. At Dundonald Consulting Rooms, our echocardiography services offer prompt access to professional cardiac assessment without lengthy waiting times, helping patients gain clarity, reassurance, and appropriate next steps for treatment or monitoring.

Cardiac rehabilitation is a personalised programme designed to support recovery after a heart-related event while improving long-term cardiovascular health and overall wellbeing. This specialist service can benefit patients recovering from heart attacks, cardiac surgery, pacemaker procedures, or those living with ongoing heart conditions who want to safely rebuild strength, confidence, and fitness levels. At Dundonald Consulting Rooms, our cardiac rehabilitation approach focuses on guided exercise, lifestyle support, education, and ongoing heart health management to help reduce future cardiovascular risk and support a healthier quality of life.

24-hour blood pressure monitoring provides a detailed assessment of how your blood pressure changes throughout the day and night, offering a more accurate picture of your cardiovascular health than a single clinic reading alone. This important diagnostic test can help identify high blood pressure (hypertension), low blood pressure, and abnormal fluctuations that may contribute to symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, fatigue, palpitations, or shortness of breath. At Dundonald Consulting Rooms, our ambulatory blood pressure monitoring service supports early diagnosis, ongoing monitoring, and effective management of heart and circulatory health.
