Your health. Our priority.

Cardiac care is judged on how fast the right thing happens. These are the things that decide that.

  • A cath lab on site and on call, so a heart attack is treated here rather than moved
  • Diagnostics in one visit: ECG, echocardiography, treadmill and blood work the same morning
  • Consultants who go through your results with you rather than handing over a printout
  • Follow-up built into the plan, so medication is reviewed rather than repeated indefinitely

Questions, answered.

Common questions about cardiology care at Humayun Hospital.

I have chest pain right now. Should I book an appointment?

No. Chest pain or pressure lasting more than a few minutes, especially with breathlessness or sweating, needs an ambulance rather than an appointment. Call 108 and come to the emergency department.

Do I need an angiogram to know if my heart is alright?

Usually not. Most people are assessed with an ECG, an echocardiogram and a treadmill test. An angiogram is arranged only when those suggest a reason for it.

How long does a cardiac check-up take?

A first assessment is normally a morning. The tests take about two hours, and your cardiologist goes through the results with you the same day.

I feel fine. Is a heart check-up worth it?

It is if you are over 40, or have diabetes, high blood pressure, raised cholesterol, a smoking history, or a family member who had heart disease before 60. South Asians tend to develop coronary disease earlier and at lower body weights.
