Cardiology Specialist Clinic
Our cardiology team manages conditions related to the heart.
Who we care for
We care for adults needing a specialist cardiologist opinion. If you have several medical conditions, we can advise your GP or general physician about heart issues.
What you can expect
You'll have an initial assessment and a follow-up visit if needed. If your condition is stable, your GP can handle routine appointments.
The most common heart conditions we treat include:
- ischaemic heart disease – when the heart doesn't get enough blood due to factors like smoking, diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure
- abnormal heart rhythm – when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly
- heart valve problems
- cardiac failure – when the heart doesn't pump properly
We generally don't treat patients already seeing a private cardiologist or another public hospital, to ensure continuity of care.
