About

Dr Joris Mekel is a cardiologist. A cardiologist is a doctor who specialises in diagnosing and treating conditions of the heart and blood vessels.
Cardiology is a branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases. The heart is a vital organ that pumps blood throughout the body, delivering oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. Heart disease can affect the heart's structure or function, and can lead to a variety of symptoms, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
