Expert heart care from verified DM/MD Cardiologists — online, from home. High blood pressure, cholesterol, palpitations, ECG interpretation, post-heart attack follow-up, heart failure, breathlessness and preventive cardiology. Upload ECG and echo reports for specialist review.
A Cardiologist is a physician with the DM (Doctorate of Medicine) or advanced training in Cardiology — the highest available qualification for cardiac care. India has the world's highest age-adjusted cardiovascular mortality, with heart attacks occurring on average 10 years earlier than in Western populations. Yet most Indians with hypertension, dyslipidaemia and coronary artery disease receive suboptimal management — because cardiologists are scarce, appointments take weeks, and patients rarely receive the detailed medication counselling their conditions require.
A VinsHealth cardiologist can review your ECG, echocardiogram, Holter monitor, lipid profile, NT-proBNP and coronary angiography reports, optimise your medications, calculate your cardiovascular risk, and provide second opinions on cardiac procedures — all within 20 minutes of booking. Online cardiology is most appropriate for chronic management and follow-up, not for acute cardiac emergencies.
☤ Important: If you have sudden severe chest pain, particularly with sweating, nausea or arm or jaw radiation — call 112 immediately. This is for stable cardiac conditions, report interpretation, follow-up and prevention only.
Symptoms, specialist guidance and related articles for each condition. For acute emergencies, always call 112.
Hypertension affects 220 million Indians — and over half are undiagnosed. A VinsHealth cardiologist can review your home blood pressure readings, interpret your ABPM (ambulatory BP monitoring) data, adjust antihypertensive medications, assess end-organ damage through your reports, and create a personalised management plan that addresses lifestyle, diet and medication optimisation for long-term BP control.
Chest pain is one of the most anxiety-provoking symptoms a patient can experience. A VinsHealth cardiologist can assess whether your chest pain has cardiac, musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal or anxiety-related features, review your ECG and cardiac enzyme reports, and advise on urgency — distinguishing the 90% of chest pain that is non-cardiac from the 10% that requires prompt cardiac evaluation.
Dyslipidaemia affects 79% of Indian adults and is a primary driver of India's cardiovascular epidemic — yet most Indians receive no treatment guidance beyond 'avoid fried food.' A cardiologist can interpret your full lipid profile (LDL, HDL, triglycerides, non-HDL cholesterol, ApoB), calculate your cardiovascular risk using validated scores (QRISK, Framingham), prescribe statins or other lipid-lowering agents, and create a diet plan targeting cardiovascular protection.
Palpitations — the awareness of your own heartbeat — affect millions of Indians and range from benign extra beats (ectopics) to significant arrhythmias requiring treatment. A cardiologist can review your ECG, Holter monitor or Apple Watch rhythm data, classify your arrhythmia, prescribe rate or rhythm control medication, and advise on whether an electrophysiology study or ablation is needed.
Post-ACS (acute coronary syndrome) care is critical — the first year after a heart attack or stent carries the highest risk of recurrence. A VinsHealth cardiologist can review your discharge medications, echo report, and current symptoms, optimise your secondary prevention medications (aspirin, beta-blocker, statin, ACE inhibitor, P2Y12 inhibitor), and provide the detailed medication counselling that many patients never receive before hospital discharge.
Heart failure affects 8 million Indians and is the most common reason for hospital readmission in adults over 65. A cardiologist can review your echocardiogram (ejection fraction), current medications (ACEi/ARB, beta-blocker, MRA, SGLT2 inhibitor), fluid balance, and weight trends — and optimise your GDMT (guideline-directed medical therapy) to reduce hospitalisation risk significantly.
Unexplained breathlessness has a wide differential — cardiac, pulmonary, anaemia, deconditioning or anxiety. A cardiologist can review your ECG, echocardiogram, NT-proBNP, chest X-ray and clinical history to determine whether breathlessness is of cardiac origin and what specific cardiac condition (heart failure, diastolic dysfunction, pericardial disease, valvular disease) is responsible.
ECG (electrocardiogram) reports generate enormous anxiety when patients receive a report with terms like 'ST depression,' 'LBBB,' 'sinus bradycardia' or 'prolonged QT interval' — often without explanation. A VinsHealth cardiologist can interpret your uploaded ECG report in clinical context, explain the findings accurately, determine whether they are clinically significant, and advise on whether further evaluation is needed.
Angina — chest pain or tightness on exertion caused by coronary artery disease — affects an estimated 35 million Indians. A cardiologist can assess the stability of your angina, optimise anti-anginal medications (nitrates, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, ranolazine), advise on functional testing and angiography thresholds, and provide second opinions on revascularisation recommendations (stent vs bypass vs medical management).
India has the highest age-adjusted cardiovascular mortality in the world — with heart attacks occurring on average 10 years earlier than in the West. A preventive cardiologist can calculate your 10-year cardiovascular risk, identify modifiable risk factors, prescribe preventive medications (statins, aspirin when indicated), create a personalised diet and exercise plan, and advise on the most evidence-based interventions for your specific risk profile.
All cardiologists hold a DM or MD in Cardiology with specialist clinical training, are NMC registered, individually verified and have a minimum 4.8★ patient rating.

Was on 3 antihypertensives and still reading 165/100. Dr. Anil reviewed my home BP log, identified I was taking one medication at the wrong time, switched one drug, added low-dose spironolactone. BP is 128/78 now. Should have done this 2 years ago.
Cardiologist said I needed a statin immediately at 35 with LDL of 145 mg/dL. Dr. Sunita calculated my QRISK score — it was 3.2%. Advised lifestyle changes for 6 months first. LDL now 118 without medication. Avoided unnecessary lifelong statin at a young age.
Health check ECG showed ST depression and my GP referred me to a cardiologist who said I needed an angiogram immediately. Dr. Rajan reviewed my ECG online — explained it was a normal repolarisation variant, not ischaemic ST depression. Saved me from an invasive procedure.
Discharged after a stent with a 10-minute explanation of 9 medications. No one explained what each drug does or why stopping any is dangerous. Dr. Anil spent 40 minutes explaining every medication. I finally understood why I'm on dual antiplatelet therapy. Took this seriously.
Had palpitations for 8 months, three ECGs all 'normal.' Dr. Rajan looked at my description and told me to do a 48-hour Holter. Caught 14,000 ectopics in 48 hours. Started on low-dose flecainide. Palpitations gone. All it took was a 20-minute online consultation.
Father had a heart attack at 52. I'm 44 with slightly high BP and cholesterol. Dr. Sunita calculated my 10-year QRISK — it was 11.2%, high enough for a statin. Started rosuvastatin + lifestyle changes. LDL now 78 mg/dL. I feel like I'm actually fighting my family history now.
