"The CardioPod allows us to undertake health checks that would previously have taken time for the results to reach the patient. People are definitely now making more enquiries about the CardioPod and, in many cases, they come in because a friend has had the test done. We are also seeing quite a lot of people under the age of 35, which is unusual as the heart health of patients under that age is usually considered very low risk.”

“Following discussions with the surgery, we had the CardioPod installed at Radlett thereby increasing access to healthcare for our patients. Our long opening hours and convenient location means we can reach hard-to-reach consumers. With patients’ agreement we can share the test results with their GP.
"Irrespective of the results we give healthy lifestyle advice. The response we have had from those who have used it is very favourable indeed. Many people have commented on the simplicity of the test and the speed with which they have their results in their hand. Working in partnership with local GPs we can offer them the chance to make vital changes to their lifestyle that may, ultimately, save their lives.”
