FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions
What cardiology services are available?
Our private cardiology service provides specialist consultations and diagnostic heart testing, including ECGs and echocardiograms. The appropriate tests will be recommended according to your symptoms, medical history and individual needs.
What symptoms might require a cardiology assessment?
You may benefit from an assessment if you experience symptoms such as chest discomfort, palpitations, breathlessness, dizziness, fainting or unexplained fatigue. Seek emergency help for severe or sudden symptoms rather than waiting for a private appointment.
How will I receive my results?
Your results will be reviewed by the appropriate specialist and explained clearly, along with any recommended treatment, monitoring or further investigations. The exact timescale may depend on the test performed.
What is the difference between an ECG and an echocardiogram?
An ECG records the rate, rhythm and electrical activity of your heart. An echocardiogram uses ultrasound to produce images of the heart, helping assess its structure, valves, blood flow and pumping function.
What happens during an echocardiogram?
You will usually lie on a couch while a trained healthcare professional applies gel to your chest and moves an ultrasound probe across the skin. The test is non-invasive and allows detailed images of your heart to be recorded.
Do you accept cardiology patients from across the North West?
Yes. Greater Lancashire Hospital provides private cardiology consultations, ECGs and echocardiograms for patients from Preston and across Lancashire and the wider North West, including Chorley, Leyland, Blackburn and Blackpool.
