Cardiology
Heart and cardiovascular disorders affect the heart and blood vessels — a system responsible for pumping oxygen-rich blood throughout the body. When the cardiovascular system is not functioning properly, it can impact energy levels, circulation, breathing, and overall health. Common symptoms of cardiovascular problems include chest pain or pressure, shortness of breath, palpitations (feeling like your heart is racing or skipping beats), dizziness, swelling in the legs or feet, and reduced ability to exercise. Some conditions may cause sudden symptoms such as fainting or severe chest discomfort, while others progress gradually and may go unnoticed for years.
Each heart condition presents differently — for example, coronary artery disease may cause chest pain with activity, while abnormalities in the heart’s normal rhythm can lead to irregular heartbeats, lightheadedness, or even loss of consciousness.
A cardiologist is a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases of the heart and blood vessels. They have advanced training in cardiovascular function and are equipped to manage a wide range of conditions affecting circulation and heart performance.
Cardiologists care for patients with conditions such as:
• Coronary artery disease
• Heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), such as atrial fibrillation
• Heart failure
• High blood pressure (hypertension)
• High cholesterol
• Valvular heart disease
• Peripheral vascular disease
They use diagnostic tools such as electrocardiograms (ECGs), stress testing, echocardiograms (ultrasound of the heart), CT scans, and some invasive procedures such as cardiac catheterization, or electrophysiological studies to diagnose and treat problems with the heart. Treatment usually includes lifestyle modifications, medications, minimally invasive procedures, or surgical interventions, depending on the diagnosis.
Whether you have risk factors for heart disease, are experiencing new symptoms, or need ongoing cardiovascular care, a cardiologist can help protect your heart and reduce long term illness.
