On The Day Of Your Visit
On your first visit, the cardiologist will want to get a thorough personal
history from you, and most likely, will want to conduct a physical examination.
Depending on the findings of the tests and history, the doctor will
want to go over various additional testing and treatment plan options.
Specific information on tests and treatment plans can be found in the
front of your patient information and education booklet, or from your
physician.
What To Bring and How
To Dress
- Bring all your prescription medications in their current containers
- Continue your medications as usual unless instructed otherwise by

- Refrain from eating for at least two hours before your visit; the
preceding meal should be light, without coffee, tea or alcohol

shorts, slacks or jogging attire; please do not wear one-piece outfits
or panty hose; you may be asked to remove your shirt or change into

You will be asked to fill out the New Patient Information Record
upon your first office visit.
For your convenience, you can fill this form out in advance on-line. Instead
of sending it over the Internet which is not 100% safe, our on-line form
allows you to fill in information on your computer and then print it off
to take with you to our clinic. This method is 100% safe because you are
not sending any private information over the Internet. Convenience without
the worry!

for information on obtaining the transfer request information.
