About this treatment
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of premature death in Scotland and the majority of cases involve risk factors that could have been identified and managed years earlier. Dr Sockalingam’s Cardiovascular Health Assessment is designed precisely for this: a structured, clinical review of your heart and circulatory health, conducted while there is still time to make a meaningful difference.
The assessment evaluates your complete cardiovascular risk profile combining blood pressure measurement, lipid and glucose analysis, resting ECG, family history review, and lifestyle risk factors to generate a clear, evidence-based picture of your cardiac health. Results are explained personally by Dr Sockalingam, with a direct management plan tailored to your clinical profile.
