Frequently Asked Questions
What Does a Cardiologist in Tbilisi Treat
A cardiologist in Tbilisi diagnoses and treats heart and vascular diseases: coronary artery disease (angina, heart attack), hypertension, heart failure, arrhythmias (atrial fibrillation, tachycardia), heart valve disease, cardiomyopathies and inflammatory conditions (myocarditis, pericarditis). Modern cardiac centers in Tbilisi have ECG, echocardiography, 24-hour Holter monitors and exercise stress testing capabilities.
When to See a Cardiologist
Call emergency services for chest pain or pressure radiating to the arm or jaw, sudden shortness of breath at rest, loss of consciousness, or severe palpitations. Schedule a cardiology appointment for blood pressure above 140/90, resting heart rate above 100 or below 50, irregular heartbeat, leg swelling, or shortness of breath with moderate exertion. Men over 40 and women over 50 should have an annual cardiac check-up.

How to Choose a Cardiologist in Tbilisi
For serious cardiac conditions (arrhythmia, coronary disease) choose a cardiologist at a multi-specialty hospital with an interventional cardiology unit. For hypertension management and prevention, an experienced specialist at a private clinic is sufficient. Look for English-speaking cardiologists at international clinics in Tbilisi — several have trained or practiced abroad and are familiar with international treatment protocols.
