This includes hypertension and hypertensive heart disease, simple arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and other rhythm disorders, heart failure/ cardiomyopathy, and the general assessment of undifferentiated patients with cardiac symptoms (such as chest pain, shortness of breath and palpitations).

The consulting cardiologist will:

Provide an initial evaluation.
