Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of heart and blood vessel disorders.

Symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness, or fatigue should prompt a visit to a cardiologist.

An ECG is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart to detect heart problems.

A 2D Echo is a non-invasive imaging test that uses sound waves to create images of the heart, helping to assess its function and structure.

We provide comprehensive services, including ECG, 2D Echo, Stress Tests, Cardiac Catheterization, Interventional Cardiology, and more.

Protein C is a protein that helps regulate blood clotting by deactivating certain clotting factors and promoting clot breakdown. Its proper function is crucial for preventing excessive clotting and related disorders.

A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm. The sample is then analyzed to measure Protein C activity and antigen levels.

No special preparation or fasting is required before the test. You can eat and drink normally.
