Perhaps, you require a preoperative diagnosis for bypass surgery or need a test for a condition that doesn’t yet have a diagnosis. At Venturi Cardiology, we want you to be sure that you will receive the best care for your heart and health. You don’t have to give up all the things you love because of a heart condition. Whether you used to train regularly, want to get back into sports or need support with your recovery, you can contact us directly to book a consultation at our cardiac diagnosis centre. At Venturi we offer tests for heart disease and risk reduction plans from the best private cardiologists in the Northwest.
Don’t wait on the NHS to provide you with a referral. We know that private cardiac testing and treatment plans can be expensive. That’s why we offer a range of services and competitive price options available so you can get answers and support as quickly as possible. Our self-pay packages can get you booked in for clinical consultations, risk assessments or even an annual subscription if you need ongoing care. You can also arrange specific cardiology tests or request bespoke services.
At Venturi cardiac diagnosis centre, we offer rapid access to clinical consultations and diagnostic investigations from the best private cardiologist team in the Northwest. NHS and private patients can both benefit from our 30 years of combined experience. Our team of expert cardiologists understand that heart problems can be a traumatic and challenging experience. Therefore, you can be guaranteed that we will conduct comprehensive, same-day tests for heart disease using state-of-the-art technology at our cardiac and angina diagnosis centre.
What you get
With our in-house private ECG machines, you will usually get the test results immediately after the appointment or the next day. We also use a range of diagnostic cardiology tests such as CT scans and respiratory tests to ensure that you can quickly reach the right diagnosis for your condition.
Before testing, you can meet with one of our consultant cardiologists at a virtual or in-person appointment where you can discuss your symptoms and concerns. Once we’ve established any relevant family history or lifestyle influences, you will undergo testing if needed. This will allow our cardiologists to recommend an in-depth, personalised treatment plan. You can take this back with you to your regular GP or hospital so they can start working on it with you. However, should any problems arise, we will be there to offer support and facilitate the best treatment for your care.
Businesses and corporations can also benefit from our comprehensive wellness screenings as we also carry out cardiac testing for employees. We’ll ensure that your employees are healthy so that you can concentrate on the smooth running of your business. These services are available for companies operating from the Northwest, as well as those further afield.
Venturi Cardiology will give you fast and comprehensive access to the best cardiology services in the Northwest.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need to prepare for my appointment?
There is no specific preparation unless you are given different instructions when you make your booking. However, we wouldn’t recommend drinking coffee or caffeinated drinks ahead of your appointment as if you go on to have diagnostic tests this can speed up your heart rate.
What will happen at my first consultation?
At your first consultation, regardless of whether it is virtual or in person, you will meet with a consultant cardiologist and discuss your symptoms and concerns. Then you will be asked a series of questions about your lifestyle and family history. We will then recommend next steps. If you prefer you can take this recommendation (in the form of a letter or PDF) back to your GP or hospital and request to have the tests carried out on the NHS. Or if you would prefer, we can carry out any tests here at the clinic, often on the same day as your consultation or very soon afterwards.
What should I wear for my consultation?
For your first consultation please feel free to wear whatever is comfortable for you. However, as we may go on to carry out tests, in some cases, directly after the consultation, it is advisable to wear something loose fitting. For some of the diagnostic tests we might ask you to get changed and put on a hospital gown whilst we are taking the test. We have changing rooms on site.
When will I get the results of my tests?
In most cases the cardiologists will be able to give you the results immediately after the appointment or the next day.
What will happen after my consultation?
After the consultation you will be given a bespoke treatment plan for you to either take back to your GP or into hospital or we can carry out further diagnostics right here in the clinic – often immediately after the appointment if that is your preference. Our doctors are very happy to liaise directly with your GP or other care providers if there is anything else they need to know.
I've booked an appointment online but don't know which service or package to select?
Don’t worry, when you come down for the initial consultation, we will be able to advise you as to which package / service would be suitable for you. This can be offered on the day immediately following your clinical consultation. Or, if you choose, we can refer you back into NHS services or advise your GP accordingly.
Will my medical insurance cover the cost of the consultation or test?
If you have medical insurance you would need to contact your insurer to pre-authorise any appointments with us. We are more than happy to help answer any questions you may have regarding insurance cover, please get in touch on 01925 748245 to speak to one of the Venturi team.
