What Is an Exercise Stress Test?

An exercise stress test measures how your heart performs under physical exertion. It helps identify:

  • Blocked or narrowed arteries
  • Irregular heart rhythms
  • Exercise-induced symptoms (e.g., dizziness, fatigue, chest pain)
  • Safe levels of activity for cardiac rehab or fitness plans

How It Works

This treatment is ideal for:

  • You’ll walk on a treadmill or pedal a stationary bike
  • Your heart rate, blood pressure, and EKG are monitored throughout
  • Test duration is typically 15–30 minutes
  • Results are interpreted by your physician and used to tailor your care

What Is an Echocardiogram?

An echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the heart that shows real-time images of its size, structure, and function. It helps diagnose:

  • Heart valve issues
  • Heart failure
  • Congenital heart defects

This test is safe, painless, and performed in-office by trained technicians.
