Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders of the heart and blood vessels.
You should consider seeing a cardiologist if you experience symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, or high blood pressure, or if you have risk factors for heart disease such as diabetes, obesity, or a family history of heart disease.
Dr. Morshed offers a comprehensive range of cardiology services, including diagnostic tests such as EKG, tilt testing, and vascular ultrasonography, as well as treatments for conditions such as hypertensive heart disease, cardiomegaly, and chest pain.

A cardiologist specializes in diagnosing and treating heart conditions using medications and non-invasive procedures, while a cardiac surgeon performs surgical procedures, such as bypass surgery or valve repair, to treat heart conditions.
The frequency of check-ups with a cardiologist depends on your individual health status and risk factors. Generally, patients with existing heart conditions may need to see a cardiologist more frequently, while those with lower risk may require annual check-ups.
Maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in regular exercise, managing stress, quitting smoking, and controlling conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes can all contribute to better heart health. Dr. Morshed can provide personalized recommendations based on your specific needs.
Common warning signs of a heart attack include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadedness, and pain or discomfort in the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately by calling emergency services.
