Not sure which to choose?
Video suits most first consultations and is the quickest way to be seen.
Telephone is a good option if you have no camera or a weak internet connection.
Face to face is best if you would like to be examined or have an ECG or scan at the same visit.
If you already have test results, a cardiac investigations review lets the cardiologist explain them. If you are unsure, call or message us before booking.
What a private cardiology consultation includes
A private cardiology consultation with Dr Salloum is a focused, unhurried appointment with a consultant cardiologist. He listens to your symptoms and history, reviews any tests you already have, and explains what they mean in plain language.
Depending on your concern, this can include an examination and ECG at a face to face appointment, advice on heart conditions such as chest pain, palpitations, high blood pressure or heart failure, and a plan for further cardiac tests if they are needed. If you already have an ECG or monitor result, you can also use ECG reporting.
Afterwards you receive a clear written letter with your findings and next steps. You can book a private cardiology consultation by video or telephone from anywhere in the UK, or in person in Peterborough or Corby. For general background on heart and circulatory conditions, see the NHS guide to cardiovascular disease.

Booking questions answered
When can I be seen?
Face-to-face appointments in Peterborough and Corby are available on Saturdays. Telephone and video consultations are available seven days a week, including same-day appointments.
Is parking available at the clinics?
Yes. Both the Peterborough and Corby clinics have free on-site parking.
How do video consultations work?
After you book and pay securely online, you receive a confirmation email that includes your Zoom link. You join the secure video call at your appointment time from a phone, tablet or computer.
Can I get a prescription?
Where it is clinically appropriate, Dr Salloum can issue a private prescription as part of your consultation. The prescription is included in the consultation fee. Prescribing is for patients in the UK only, and you will need to provide your full name, date of birth, NHS number and address. You receive a text and email so you can collect your medicine from your local pharmacy. Controlled drugs and medicines outside a cardiologist’s expertise are not prescribed.
Will my GP receive a letter?
Your clinic letter is written to you, so you can share it with your GP if you wish.
Are tests such as an echocardiogram included?
Tests are arranged separately from the consultation. Imaging, ECG and monitoring providers are separate organisations with their own policies, and Dr Salloum reviews the results with you. You can see the available tests and locations on the cardiac tests page.
What should I have ready before my appointment?
It helps to have a list of your current medicines, any recent test results or ECGs, and a note of your symptoms and the questions you would like to ask.
