Heart disease rarely warns you. Cardiology should.

Four ways we work

What cardiology looks like, here.

We work across the full preventive-to-chronic spectrum, with the same care for the calm patient as for the symptomatic one.

— 01

Risk, read carefully.

Personal cardiovascular risk stratification with ApoB, Lp(a), HbA1c, blood pressure and family history. Numbers translated into a plan.

— 02

Symptoms, worked up.

Atypical chest pain, palpitations, dyspnoea or fatigue. Clinical assessment first, the right next test second — never every test.

— 03

Pressure, managed properly.

Diagnosis and treatment of hypertension including 24-hour ambulatory monitoring. Built around your numbers, not a chart average.

— 04

Plaque, seen early.

Calcium score and CT coronary angiography for selected patients — performed at Evidia, always with cardiology consultation first.

What we offer

Four ways in.

Every cardiac workup begins with the same 45 minutes in person. From there we order what’s medically motivated — and nothing else.

— Consultation

Cardiology consultation

Forty-five minutes with a cardiologist. Risk factors, symptoms, blood pressure, ECG, family history. The starting point for every workup.

The protocol

How it works.

Same path whether you’re here for a risk review, a symptom workup or a heart scan.

01

Consultation

Forty-five minutes in person. Risk factors, family history, blood pressure, ECG. Clinical indication established here.

02

Workup

Bloodwork, ambulatory monitoring or imaging at Evidia — only what’s medically motivated. Results within a week.

03

Results

In-person review with your cardiologist. A clear action plan — medication, lifestyle, further workup, referral or reassurance.

04

Follow-up

Three- and twelve-month check-ins. Repeat lipids, blood pressure review, dose adjustments. We stay with you.

Who this is for

Appropriate — and not appropriate.

+ Right for you

  • 40+ with risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, lipids)
  • Premature heart disease in the family
  • Atypical chest pain, palpitations or dyspnoea
  • Elevated LDL or Lp(a)
  • A second opinion before or after intervention
  • A long-term cardiologist relationship

— Not right

  • Acute chest pain — emergency or 112
  • Acute interventional or rhythm care
  • Pregnancy with suspected cardiac emergency
  • Inpatient admission or surgery
  • A scan without clinical indication
  • Walk-in urgent care

Cardiology delivered under European Society of Cardiology guidelines, Swedish regulation and proven experience.

Frequently asked

Questions and answers.

Do I need a referral?
No. You can book a cardiology consultation directly. We then issue referrals for imaging at Evidia or onward referrals to interventional cardiology, electrophysiology or rhythm surgery when indicated.
Is this covered by my insurance?
For private insurance (Cigna, Carps, embassy insurance) we are an in-network provider. Coverage depends on your policy and indication — we send the invoice directly to your insurer when applicable.
Can I see the same cardiologist over time?
Yes. Continuity is core to how we work. You see the same cardiologist for your initial visit and follow-ups whenever scheduling allows; the full team has access to your record so coverage continues if your cardiologist is away.
What’s included in the consultation price?
The 45-minute consultation, ECG, clinical examination, blood pressure measurement and the cardiologist’s review and action plan. Labs, imaging and monitoring are priced separately and ordered only when medically motivated.
Is heart scanning included for members?
Coronary calcium score and CT coronary angiography are not included by default in Individual Membership. Members receive a fixed member price and 20% off complementary workups. For Health Optimize members the scan may be included — ask us at the consultation.
