An ‘ECHO’ is a specialised cardiac ultrasound scan used to assess the structure and function of the heart. It can produce images of your heart chambers, walls, valves and main blood vessels.
We offer private Echo scans with reports written on the same day either by specialist Cardiac Physiologists or Consultant Cardiologists.
In addition we also offer ECG Testing in Clinic which monitors your heart rate, rhythm and electrical activity.
