Detecting health problems early
We believe that partnering with doctors to help detect health problems is an effective way to improve quality of life. Cardio-Gram Screening is dedicated to providing affordable, reliable preventive health screenings.
While many retail health screen services are offered in a variety of non medical facilities, National Diagnostic Services only administers Cardio-Gram screens in the safe and private environment of a medical facility. Should your screen present an immediate health risk, medical personnel are on site to assist you.
Unique to the Cardio-Gram is the inclusion of an Echocardiogram which gives a picture of the complete structure and pumping action of your heart. Only the Cardio-Gram enables this comprehensive screen of your cardiovascular health.
