Diagnostic & Clinical Services
A comprehensive range of paediatric cardiac investigations and management, all under one specialist roof.
Electrocardiogram (ECG)
Non-invasive recording of the heart’s electrical activity to identify rhythm abnormalities and structural concerns.
Echocardiogram
Detailed ultrasound imaging of the heart using state-of-the-art, modern diagnostic machines. It is the primary tool for diagnosing structural and functional conditions in children.

Continuous heart monitoring to capture intermittent arrhythmias that may not appear during a standard ECG.
Exercise Stress Testing
Supervised cardiac assessment during physical activity to evaluate symptoms that occur with exercise.
Congenital Heart Disease
Specialist management of structural heart conditions present from birth, across all ages and stages of development.
Pulmonary Hypertension
Diagnosis and ongoing management of elevated pulmonary artery pressure in paediatric patients.
Preventive Cardiology
Early identification of cardiac risk factors in children and adolescents, including family history screening and lifestyle guidance.
Why CardioKids
We built this practice around one question: what do children and their families actually need from a cardiac specialist?
Exclusively paediatric
Our practice is dedicated entirely to children’s cardiac care. Every aspect of the clinic, from the diagnostic equipment to the consultation approach, is calibrated for younger patients and their families.
Communication you can trust
We translate clinical findings into language families can act on. You will leave every appointment with a clear understanding of your child’s condition, the reasoning behind any recommendations, and what to expect next.
Modern diagnostic capability
CardioKids is equipped with state-of-the-art cardiac imaging and monitoring technology, enabling accurate diagnosis without delays.
A preventive mindset
We believe the best cardiac outcomes begin early. Dr. Mustafa integrates preventive assessment into every consultation, identifying risk factors before they become clinical problems.
