What does a Cardiologist do?
A cardiologist is an experienced healthcare expert who offers complete heart care through diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cardiac diseases. Using their in-depth knowledge and years of experience, they analyse patient’s problems closely and craft a personalised treatment plan for comprehensive care.
What question should you ask a Cardiologist?
You can ask any questions a cardiologist without any hesitation to clear your doubts, such as what your heart’s condition is, whether surgery is required, how they will treat your disease, how long recovery will take, whether you need a specific diet and many more.
What are the most common types of conditions that Cardiologists treat?
Cardiologists treat several conditions, such as coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, arrhythmias, high blood pressure, heart valve disease, congenital heart defects, and myocarditis. Our cardiologist in Kannur at Aster is well aware of every major and minor cardiac disease and offers complete heart care.
When should I consider seeing a Cardiologist?

How should I prepare for my first visit to Cardiologist?
While visiting for the first time, you should know what questions or concerns you want to discuss, take all necessary health documents along, and do some research about cardiology as well (if possible). You can also connect with our cardiologist in Kannur to know exactly what’s required.
How does a Cardiologist decide on a treatment plan?
Cardiologists follow a standardised approach to diagnose and treat heart patients. They first closely analyse the type of heart condition, track the symptoms, diagnose overall health, check on your medical history, and prepare a complete heart health report. Based on that report, they created a treatment plan.
Will a Cardiologist help manage side effects during treatment?
Yes, of course. They closely monitor the heart's condition throughout the treatment to prevent critical conditions from occurring. In case of side effects, they customise the treatment with accurate medications. At Aster, our cardiologist in Kannur keeps track of heart conditions and provides instant relief from after-effects or post-surgery side effects.
What documents should I carry on my first visit to a medical oncologist?
Several documents, such as past medical records, health checkups, previous treatment reports, blood tests, and prescribed medications, must be shared with a medical oncologist. You can consult our cardiologist in Kannur to learn what’s required for the first visit.
How do cardiologists decide if surgery is necessary?
Cardiologists consider several factors when deciding whether surgery is necessary. These include the type of disease, medical records, seriousness of the condition, and overall health analysis. Our cardiologist in Kannur runs several tests to determine whether heart surgery is necessary.
