Bring a Support Person
 

• You’re welcome to bring a family member. They can help:

• Listen and take notes

• Remember symptoms or episodes

• Provide comfort and support

• Heart health involves your whole support system, and we want you to feel informed and supported throughout your visit.
   

Arrive Early
 

• We recommend arriving 15–20 minutes before your scheduled time so you can:

• Complete new patient paperwork

• Ensure we’ve received prior test results or medical records

• Update insurance or personal information

• Settle in without feeling rushed

• A typical first cardiology visit lasts around 40 minutes.
