AMC's
Section of Cardiovascular Disease is part of
the Department of Medicine. The
Cardiologists of the section of
Cardiovascular Disease spend their time and
effort diagnosing and treating patients with
heart disease.
The highly trained doctors headed by DR.
TAHIR SHEIKH who make up the section use the
latest diagnostic techniques to assist them
to accurately diagnose the cause of chest
pain, palpitations, or other symptoms in
people who may have heart disease. These
specialized tests include transthoracic and
transesophageal echocardiography, Holter
Monitor recordings, nuclear stress testing,
chemical (“non-stress”) stress testing, and
heart catheterization.
Al Abeer Medical Centre offers a full range
of non-surgical and surgical consultations
to people who suffer problems with angina,
(heart pain), heart attacks, heart failure,
abnormalities of the heart rhythm, and
diseases of the heart valves.
Al Abeer’s Cardiac Rehabilitation Program is
staffed by trained exercise physiologists
and includes counseling in nutrition, weight
control, smoking cessation, and other risk
factor modification techniques.
Al Abeer Medical Centre also presents
regular educational programs for the
community to help our neighbors remain
heart-healthy.
