Resting 12-lead ECG available onsite with same-day GP interpretation. Used for pre-operative clearance, chest pain assessment, cardiovascular monitoring, and insurance/medical assessments.
Our experienced clinical team can perform ECG tracings onsite during your consultation, allowing your doctor to review the results promptly and determine whether any further investigation or management is required.
This streamlined approach helps reduce delays and ensures your cardiac health is assessed as part of your ongoing care plan.
If your ECG suggests further investigation is needed, we have direct access to onsite visiting cardiologist Dr Alex Adel — including stress echocardiography, echocardiogram, cardiac CT and MRI referrals. Monthly clinics held onsite at Botanic Ridge Doctors.
