Cardiac Consultations

Cardiac consultations provide a valuable opportunity for you to discuss your concerns, undergo evaluation, and receive expert guidance from a cardiologist at Redefine Healthcare. During your consultation, our cardiologists will take the time to listen to your medical history, symptoms, and any specific concerns you may have. We will then perform a physical examination to assess your cardiovascular health. Additionally, we may recommend specific diagnostic tests based on your symptoms and medical history to gain a more comprehensive understanding of your condition.

Cardiac Screening & Testing

At Redefine Healthcare, we emphasize the importance of cardiac screening and testing as vital components of preventative care. This provides us with a thorough assessment of your heart health. Regular cardiac screenings and tests are particularly important if you have risk factors such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a sedentary lifestyle. These screenings help us identify potential issues early on, allowing for timely interventions, lifestyle modifications, and appropriate management to reduce the risk of heart disease and its complications.

Surgical Clearance

Redefine Healthcare’s cardiologists specialize in surgical clearance. Surgical clearance is a vital step done prior to surgery that ensures a patient’s cardiac health is thoroughly evaluated. The purpose of this is to minimize the risk of complications and optimize surgical outcomes by assessing the patient’s cardiac condition and overall health. The surgical clearance process includes a review of a patient’s medical history, physical examination, and relevant diagnostic tests. By evaluating the patient’s cardiac function and identifying any underlying conditions, our cardiologists can determine the patient’s readiness for surgery.

At Redefine Healthcare, we prioritize your heart health. Whether you need a consultation, screenings, testing, or treatment options, our team of experts is here to assist you. We work collaboratively with other specialists in our network to provide comprehensive, integrated care.
