Pulse Cardiac Centre is a unique multidisciplinary medical clinic focused on patients with heart disease and cardiovascular risk factors. Our team includes a Cardiologist, Registered Nurse, a Registered Dietitian, a Clinical Exercise Physiologist, and a Clinical Psychologist.
We are passionate about helping people achieve their optimal health. We thrive on seeing our patients regain their quality of life.
We treat each patient’s cardiovascular condition with the best evidence-based medical therapy. But we don’t stop there. . . patients also receive written prescriptions for lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and smoking cessation.
We look after all cardiac conditions and assess patients with undifferentiated symptoms yet to be diagnosed. We also work with patients at risk of developing heart disease.
ECG, exercise stress testing, Holter monitors, event/loop recorders, and 24-hour blood pressure monitors. For patients who cannot wait several months for an echocardiogram, we perform focused echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart).
Our Registered Dietitian is available to see patients outside the cardiac rehab and fitness programs.
We have developed a state-of-the-art cardiac rehabilitation program designed to continue the momentum generated by the hospital-based programs. Our cardiologist-supervised program is tailored to your unique condition and needs. We help you take control of your health by creating a personalized program of exercise, diet, and education. Your exercise prescription is adjusted as your fitness improves. The cardiologist follows you throughout to optimize your medical therapy.
