Chest Pain Fixed Price Package
Investigating chest pain brought on by exertion and relieved by rest
Why choose this fixed price package?
Aimed to investigate chest pain that occurs specifically during exertion and reliably goes away with rest, this fixed price package focuses on the most common cause of this type of chest pain: blockages in the coronary arteries.
- Rapid turnaround from consultation to results
- A set pathway of tests, so you know exactly what to expect
- Everything explained in plain terms at every step
- Clear, fixed pricing
Is this package suitable for you?
This package is available to patients aged 18 and over.
- You experience chest pain specifically during exertion, which reliably resolves with rest
If you experience severe chest pain at rest, call 999 immediately. This package is not appropriate for acute or ongoing chest pain at rest.
Fixed Price Package: £2,760
This fixed price covers your care from your initial consultation through to your results discussion.
See below for details on what’s included.
BOOKING & INITIAL CONSULTATION
To book this fixed-price package, please complete the form at the bottom of this page. Our Enquiries Team will then call you to arrange the date and time of your ECG and initial consultation.
An ECG is carried out immediately before your appointment to allow your consultant to properly understand your heart health and confirm whether the chest pain pathway is right for you. Your initial appointment then gives you the chance to talk through your symptoms and any other concerns you may have.
When booking, our Enquiries Team will let you know what time to arrive for your ECG and the time of your consultation. There may be a short wait in between to ensure the results have reached your cardiologist before your appointment.
Full payment is required at the time of booking.
TESTS & SCANS
If your consultant cardiologist confirms this pathway is suitable for you, you’ll come back for one appointment to have the remaining tests and scans in this package carried out together, by our specialist clinical team.
Where possible and if it suits you, some of these tests can be carried out immediately after your initial consultation.
See Tests and Scans below for details of each procedure included in the package.
RESULTS CONSULTATION
Once your results are in, you will attend an appointment with your consultant cardiologist to go through the findings and discuss any next steps. Face-to-face appointments are recommended, though online consultations are available on request.
Tests and Scans
ECG (Electrocardiogram)
What it is: A recording of the electrical activity of your heart, taken using small sticky pads (electrodes) placed on your chest, arms and legs.
What it’s for: To check your heart’s rhythm and electrical activity for anything that could be contributing to your breathlessness.
How long it takes: About 10 minutes
Blood tests
What it is: A standard blood sample taken from your arm, tested for a range of markers including full blood count, kidney function, liver function, cholesterol, and blood sugar (HbA1c).
What it’s for: To check for anaemia and give a wider view of your overall health.
How long it takes: A few minutes to take the sample. Results are usually ready within a few days.
ECHO (Echocardiogram)
What it is: An ultrasound scan of your heart.
What it’s for: To check how well your heart is pumping and to look closely at its structures.
How long it takes: Around 30 to 45 minutes.
CT coronary angiogram
What it is: A detailed CT scan of the arteries supplying your heart, using around 360 X-ray images together with an injection of contrast dye.
What it’s for: To look for blockages in the coronary arteries, the most common cause of chest pain brought on by exertion.
How long it takes: The scan itself takes around 10 to 15 minutes, though your appointment will be longer to allow time for preparation.

About fixed pricing
Eligibility for Fixed Price Packages is determined at your initial consultation, which confirms the pathway is clinically suitable for your individual circumstances.
In some cases, findings during your tests or scans may indicate a need for further investigation or treatment outside this package. If this happens, your care may move outside the fixed price package and additional costs may apply. Where possible, this will be discussed with you in advance.
