Paediatric Cardiology
Our paediatric cardiologist works closely with young people and their families to diagnose, monitor and manage a wide range of congenital and acquired heart conditions, including disorders affecting the structure, function and rhythm of the heart.
We see children and young people with concerns that may be related to the heart, such as those listed.
Our paediatric cardiologist undertakes a thorough assessment, including detailed history taking, physical examination, and investigations such as electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography (cardiac ultrasound).
Results are discussed during the same visit, allowing access to timely diagnosis, counselling and a family-centred discussion about management and follow-up options.
