What to expect at a consultation

For a first cardiology visit, bring any recent ECG or other heart tests, a list of current medications, and details of your symptoms, such as when chest pain or palpitations occur. Be ready to describe your family history of heart disease and any risk factors like smoking or diabetes. It helps to write down questions beforehand, such as what your blood pressure target should be or which tests you need.
