Blood Pressure Monitoring
Blood pressure measurements are used to check whether your blood pressure is at normal levels. Blood pressures significantly above or below the normal range may indicate some abnormalities in the heart's function which may be caused by other factors. Regular monitoring can also help manage your condition if you have been diagnosed with hypertension (high blood pressure) or hypotension (low blood pressure).

How to be referred
GP or Other Healthcare Professional:
If your GP or other healthcare professional wishes to refer you to us, they can do this by sending us a referral letter or by using our Diagnostic referral form here. The completed referral form or letter should be sent securely to info@heartsure.co.uk so that we can offer you an appointment.
Please indicate to your doctor if you will be funding this care yourself or if you wish to utilise any Private Health Insurance. Please read below for more information.
Self Referral:
If you wish to have an appointment for a diagnostic test but you have not been referred by your GP or someone else, you can get in touch and refer yourself to us using the Patient Self Referral form here or simply by contacting a member of our team.
If you have any symptoms, past diagnoses, family history or other information that you wish to tell us about, please fill this in as it will help us to arrange the best possible appointment for you. If you wish to use private health insurance to cover the costs of your care, your insurer may not cover your care unless you are referred by a healthcare professional, and so it is advised to confirm this with your insurance provider prior to referring yourself.
