Answer:
A cardiologist, or cardiology consultant, is a medical specialist who specializes in cardiology. Cardiology is a field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of people who have problems with their cardiovascular system, especially their heart, arteries, and veins.
Cardiology is such a broad discipline, and many cardiologists specialize in certain areas.
- Clinical cardiologists specialize in the diagnosis, medical treatment, and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
- Pediatric cardiologists are clinical cardiologists that specialize in diagnosing and treating heart issues in children.
- Clinical cardiologists specialize in procedures such as stent implantation, balloon angioplasty, echocardiography, and electrophysiology.
The cardiologist assesses the patient's symptoms and medical history and prescribes testing for a more precise diagnosis. Next, they will determine if the problems can be cured under their care using medications or other available therapies. If they determine that surgery is necessary, they send patients to a cardiovascular surgeon specializing in heart, lung, and blood vessel surgery.
