We believe most adults can benefit from understanding their heart health, even if they feel well. 

Heart disease often develops silently.

This assessment is particularly important for patients with a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, raised cholesterol, diabetes, high stress levels, breathlessness, palpitations, chest discomfort or reduced exercise tolerance.

Heart disease often develops silently. Raised blood pressure, cholesterol abnormalities, inherited markers such as Lipoprotein(a), early plaque build-up and changes in heart function can be present for years without obvious symptoms. 

Screening helps identify these risks earlier, when there is more opportunity to reduce future risk.

A CT calcium score is not necessary or appropriate for every patient. 

Some patients can have their cardiovascular risk assessed clearly through their medical history, blood results, ECG, echocardiogram and Consultant Cardiologist review. 

For others, a CT calcium score, CT coronary angiogram or stress echocardiogram may be more appropriate depending on symptoms, risk factors and clinical findings. 

Because CT calcium scoring involves radiation exposure, we only arrange it where it is clinically appropriate, ensuring further testing is personalised rather than added automatically.

The assessment price includes the consultations, tests and report listed above.

Further investigations recommended after the Consultant Cardiologist review, such as CT calcium score, CT coronary angiogram or stress echocardiogram, are not included. 

These can be arranged privately on a self-funded basis, referred through private medical insurance or referred back to your your NHS GP.

If a further Consultant Cardiologist appointment is required to review additional test results, this is charged separately at £250.

Many employers choose to fund preventive health assessments for directors, senior teams and key employees. HMRC allows one health-screening assessment and one medical check-up per employee per tax year to be provided without creating a taxable benefit, provided the relevant conditions are met. 

Patients and employers should confirm suitability with their accountant or tax adviser, particularly where further investigations, treatment or ongoing medical care are required.
