For your comfort, we try to group the various tests or examinationsduring the consultation.

A consultation usually consists of the following:

• a conversation about the symptoms
• making note of your medication used at home
• clinical tests
• electrocardiogram
• stress test (exercise test)
• echocardiography

Prepare for your conversation with the physician:

• write down all your questions in advance
• write down your questions in advance and make sure to check, during the consultation, what the dose is of the prescribed medications, how you should take them and how long for.

The cardiologist may decide that more extensive tests are necessary. This will be discussed with you during the consultation. You can schedule appointments for these tests with the secretarial staff after the consultation.

For consultations in Aalter, Deinze, Ghent or Ghent-Bruges, you will receive an invoice from the hospital. This will usually take one to two months after your appointment.

If you visit one of our outpatient clinics at another location for a consultation, then you can pay using Bancontact at the secretariat.
