Do you also offer acute or emergency appointments?
Our practice is an appointment practice for planned examinations. We try to offer prompt appointments for complaints that have arisen at short notice but are not life-threatening. In acute emergencies (e.g. suspected heart attack), however, our practice is not the right place to go - the emergency services must be called immediately on 112.
Can I make an appointment for a second opinion?
Yes, of course. If you have been given a serious diagnosis or an important treatment decision is pending, a well-founded second opinion is often very helpful. We are happy to offer you a Appointment with a cardiologist to independently assess your findings and advise you.
What happens if I can't make my appointment?
If you are unable to keep an appointment, please cancel it in good time (at least 24-48 hours in advance). This gives us a fair chance to give the vacant appointment to another patient with an urgent need.
How long do I have to wait at your practice?
We attach great importance to good time management in order to minimize waiting times. However, as we take the time necessary for each individual patient and unforeseen medical situations can arise, short waiting times cannot always be avoided. We ask for your understanding.
Can I make an appointment just for a specific examination (e.g. cardiac ultrasound)?
Each examination is embedded in a medical assessment. A Appointment with a cardiologist therefore always includes a medical consultation and an assessment of the findings. We do not carry out any examinations without a prior medical assessment of the necessity and a subsequent discussion of the results. As a rule, however, an appointment with a cardiologist always includes a cardiac ultrasound with visualization of the neck vessels, an ECG, a blood pressure and pulse oximetry measurement, as well as a measurement of vascular elasticity and blood flow in the extremities.
Do I have to allow less time for a check-up appointment?
A follow-up appointment is often shorter than an initial appointment, as your medical history is already known. Nevertheless, we will take the time for a detailed discussion about developments since the last visit and for the necessary check-ups.
Does a complete examination always take place at the first appointment?
In most cases, we carry out an initial Appointment with a cardiologist We will carry out a comprehensive basic diagnosis (at least ECG and cardiac ultrasound, see above) to get a complete picture. However, the exact scope always depends on your individual question and the previous findings you bring with you.
Who do I contact if I have any questions after my appointment?
If after your Appointment with a cardiologist If you have any questions about your test results or treatment plan, please feel free to contact our practice team at any time by phone or email. We will take your inquiry and do our best to answer your question as soon as possible.
