At Heart Specialists, we offer a range of diagnostic tests to assess your cardiac health. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a non-invasive test that records the electrical signals of your heart, providing valuable information about your heart rate and rhythm. An echocardiogram, on the other hand, is an ultrasound of the heart that provides detailed information about its structure and function.

For certain tests, such as a stress test, we may require you to exercise on a treadmill or bicycle while your ECG reading is recorded. This helps us evaluate your heart's response to physical activity. Additionally, we may perform an echocardiogram before and after exercise to monitor any changes in your heart's function during exertion.

Our dedicated team at Heart Specialists consists of highly qualified professionals in the field of cardiology. Led by Dr. Clive Low and Dr. Timothy Hii, our team brings a wealth of experience in cardiological care and diagnostic testing. Lynette Shekleton is our ECHO Technician, while Helen Macdonald and Nadia Williams serve as our Registered Nurses. Our reception team, including Liz, Angela, and Gabriela, is always ready to assist you with any inquiries or appointments.
