Course of the consultation

For your comfort, we will try to schedule various tests during the consultation.
A consultation usually contains the following:

Prepare your conversation with the physician: 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.

Payment

For consultations at Maria Middelares General Hospital or the Maria Middelares Medical Centre, you will receive an invoice from the hospital. This will usually take one to two months after your appointment. Read more about this invoice here.
