iGP's Community Heart Screening provides access to discounted heart screening appointments to patients in Cardiff & South Wales. These screening sessions are physiologist led, with echocardiograms reviewed on the day by a cardiologist.
* For those that are asymptomatic (have no symptoms), who would like to screen for potential abnormalities. Suitable for those over 18 years of age with no existing heart conditions. Community heart screening is not suitable for those over 75 and we recommend those wishing to have heart screening to book an adult echocardiogram screen.
At iGP, we want our services to be available to help as many people as possible. Every month we provide a “Community Screening Day” in Cardiff, with discounted fees, to assist patients in the current financial climate.
The Private Cardiologist appointment is carried out in full by the Cardiologist. They are allocated slightly more time and will complete all elements of the appointment themselves. The Community Screening appointment uses a Nurse and Physiologist to reduce the required Cardiologist time and price of the appointment.
iGP's Community Screening is for those 18 years or over, who currently have no heart related diagnosis or symptoms and would like to get heart screened for potential abnormalities.
