Your heart may be failing and you may not feel anything.

Heart disease causes about 1 in 5 deaths in the U.S. Some arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation, may cause no symptoms and increase the risk of stroke by about 5 times, according to the American Heart Association. The EKG lasts minutes, is painless and reveals rhythm disturbances and signs of overload. It is especially important if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, are over 40 years old, have palpitations, dizziness, or have a family history.

What we do: EKG in the clinic, interpreted by the doctor during your visit.
