Self-referral cardiac assessment service now available to Dorset residents
Thursday, June 7 2018 – Nuffield Health Bournemouth Hospital has launched a new ‘much-needed’ cardiac assessment service, which has the facilities to identify undiagnosed heart conditions.
Nuffield Health’s new cardiac assessment service launched this month at the Bournemouth hospital and is available to all. The facility will provide a thorough look at an individual’s heart using state-of-the-art machinery to help detect undiagnosed heart conditions. The assessment service is aimed at those who might be worried about genetic conditions or are interested in receiving a health assessment of their heart.
Suneel Talwar, Cardiologist at Nuffield Health Bournemouth, said: “This is a much-needed facility as some heart conditions do not present with symptoms. Regardless of your age or physical capabilities, it may be beneficial to get your heart health checked as many conditions can go undiagnosed until it’s too late.
“If there are cases of heart issues in your family, it may be beneficial to seek a health assessment sooner rather than later so that if there are early signs of a heart condition we can give you the medical guidance needed in order to lead a healthy life.”
Those who are worried about their heart health are guaranteed to get an appointment within two weeks at convenient hours. During the appointment a cardiologist will provide a full assessment with some results given on the day, and others to quickly follow.
