Target the top risk factors for heart disease with expert care.

Expert evaluation and ongoing care to control high blood pressure, manage cholesterol, and reduce long-term cardiovascular risk.

At the Diagnostic & Therapeutic Heart Center in Zurich, we focus on two of the most significant risk factors for cardiovascular disease: hypertension and elevated cholesterol. 

Through precise diagnostics, personalised treatment, and ongoing care from senior cardiologists, we help you lower risk, prevent complications, and protect your heart health for life.

Who Should Consider Hypertension and Cholesterol Management — And Why It’s Important

High blood pressure and elevated cholesterol often develop silently — but together, they are the leading causes of heart attack, stroke, and cardiovascular disease. 

A targeted assessment and treatment plan can dramatically reduce your risk and protect your long-term health. 

You should consider booking an appointment if:

• You’ve been diagnosed with high blood pressure or high cholesterol and need ongoing specialist care
• You have a family history of heart disease, stroke, or sudden cardiac events
• You’ve noticed symptoms like headaches, dizziness, chest discomfort, or fatigue
• You have other risk factors such as diabetes, obesity, or smoking
• Your recent blood test or blood pressure reading was abnormal
• You’re interested in a proactive cardiovascular check-up, even without symptoms
• You want to review or optimise your current medication and treatment plan

Managing these risk factors early is one of the most effective ways to prevent serious heart disease. 

With expert guidance, regular monitoring, and tailored treatment, you can take control of your heart health before problems arise.

What to Expect During Your Hypertension and Cholesterol Consultation — Step by Step

We make the assessment and management process straightforward, thorough, and tailored to your individual health needs. 

During your visit with one of our senior cardiologists, you can expect:

1. Detailed consultation and medical history review – We discuss your blood pressure and cholesterol levels, lifestyle, family history, and any existing health conditions.
2. Physical examination – A focused cardiovascular assessment to evaluate your current status and identify risk factors.
3. On-site diagnostic testing – Blood pressure measurement, blood tests, ECG, and other diagnostics performed during your visit.
4. Comprehensive risk assessment – We calculate your cardiovascular risk profile and explain what it means for your long-term heart health.
5. Personalised treatment and prevention plan – Your cardiologist will create a tailored strategy that may include lifestyle recommendations, medication, or further follow-up.

Most patients leave their appointment with a clear understanding of their cardiovascular risk and an actionable plan to manage or reduce it.

Diagnostic Tests Used During Your Hypertension and Cholesterol Assessment

Accurate diagnosis and effective management start with the right tests. At the Diagnostic & Therapeutic Heart Center, all essential diagnostics are performed on-site, allowing us to assess your cardiovascular risk quickly and create a tailored treatment plan. 

Depending on your individual situation, your cardiologist may recommend:

• Blood pressure measurement and 24-hour monitoring – Identifies persistent hypertension, daily fluctuations, and potential causes.
• Blood tests – Measure total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, and other key markers linked to cardiovascular risk.
• Electrocardiogram (ECG) – Records the heart’s electrical activity to detect rhythm abnormalities associated with hypertension.
• Echocardiography (Echo) – Ultrasound imaging to evaluate heart structure and function, particularly if high blood pressure may have caused changes.
• Additional cardiovascular risk markers – Such as blood sugar levels, kidney function tests, and inflammatory markers to provide a complete risk profile.

All results are reviewed with you during your appointment, and your cardiologist will explain what they mean for your long-term heart health and next steps.
