Expert Cardiovascular Risk Assessment & Prevention in Cardiff

At The Metabolic Clinic, we offer comprehensive care for individuals at risk of heart disease, with a focus on early detection, prevention, and personalised management. Most cases of preventable coronary heart disease stem from well-known cardiovascular risk factors such as:

  • Smoking
  • High blood pressure (hypertension)
  • High cholesterol and abnormal blood fats
  • Diabetes
  • Family history and inherited genetic risk

Comprehensive Cardiovascular Risk Assessment

Each person attending our clinic receives a detailed one-to-one assessment by Professor Dev Datta. We carefully review your medical history, lifestyle, and family background to identify risks and create a personalised prevention plan. For individuals with a strong family history of early-onset heart disease, we may recommend:

  • Advanced blood tests for lipid and metabolic markers
  • Genetic testing for conditions such as Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH)

Non-Invasive Cardiac Imaging

Where appropriate, we can arrange specialist cardiovascular testing through Spire Cardiff Hospital, including:

  • CT Coronary Calcium Scoring – to detect early signs of plaque buildup
  • CT Coronary Angiography – to assess the heart’s blood vessels in detail

These tests are non-invasive, fast, and provide valuable insights into your heart health, especially when combined with your biochemical and genetic profile.
