The heart
is one of the most vital organs of our body, which pumps blood throughout our
body via the blood vessels. Considering its importance it is imperative that we
take good care of our heart. If you are experiencing any vascular disorder you
must consult a cardiologist immediately. Chest pain, breathlessness,
palpitations, blood pressure, cholesterol etc are a few conditions that are
treated by cardiologist. Cardiologist will examine, analyze and treat
complications and vascular disorders by prescribing preventive medicines or
changes in lifestyle behavior or by conducting medical tests or if needed may
also perform a surgery. Through proper check-up and examination a surgeon can
help reduce the chances of cardiac arrest.
Human
heart is a complex organ. And in order to take care of this vital organ there
are different types of cardiology specialists in Chandigarh who specialize in
different field of heart problems and their treatment. All cardiologist study
the complications of heart, but the study of adult and child heart is very
different. A heart surgeon who specializes adult cardiology is not certified to
take care of small children and vice-a-versa. A pediatric cardiologist is not
licensed to take care of adults.

vascular surgeons, interventional cardiologist and pediatric cardiologist.
