How to see a cardiologist

If you have insurance

Ask your GP or practice nurse for a referral, and check with your insurer that you're covered. If you're with Southern Cross, just give us your policy number — as an affiliated provider, we do the rest.

If you're not covered by insurance

We still need a referral, as it gives us your details and history. Many people self-fund a test like a 24-hour ECG or echocardiogram for reassurance.
