Preventive Cardiology · Fort Myers, FL
On-site electrocardiogram interpreted by Dr. Flávio Jamur, AACC — American College of Cardiology Associate. Know your cardiac health before symptoms become emergencies.
Cardiac Screening
An electrocardiogram — or EKG — records the electrical activity of your heart through 12 electrodes placed on your chest, arms, and legs. In approximately ten minutes, it produces a comprehensive picture of how your heart is functioning at rest.
What makes an EKG powerful is not the technology — it is the physician reading it. Dr. Flávio has interpreted thousands of EKGs during years of hospitalist practice across Lee County's major hospitals. He does not send your results to a remote reader. He reviews them with you, in the room, during the same appointment.
An EKG is often the first line of discovery for conditions that carry no symptoms until a critical event occurs. It is one of the most cost-effective preventive tools available — and it is available to you here.
Indications
Heart disease rarely announces itself. These are the groups who benefit most from a proactive cardiac baseline — established before symptoms emerge.
Cardiovascular risk increases substantially after 40. A baseline EKG allows Dr. Flávio to track changes over time — establishing your personal normal before any deviation occurs.
Feeling your heart skip, race, or flutter? An EKG can capture arrhythmias, supraventricular tachycardia, and atrial fibrillation — conditions that are manageable when caught early.
Genetic predisposition to coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, or sudden cardiac death warrants proactive surveillance. Your family history is not your destiny — but it is information that should guide your care.
Fatigue that does not resolve with rest, or shortness of breath with minimal exertion, can indicate reduced cardiac output, conduction abnormalities, or early heart failure — none of which are obvious without testing.
Before significantly increasing physical exertion — especially after years of sedentary habits — a cardiac baseline provides safety guidance and identifies conditions that require monitored exercise protocols.
Concierge membership patients receive annual EKG screening as part of a comprehensive health evaluation. Early-detection baselines are most powerful when repeated yearly — small changes become visible across time.
Diagnostic Scope
A physician-interpreted EKG provides insight across a broad range of cardiac conditions. The following represent the primary findings Dr. Flávio evaluates in every reading.
The Physician Difference
Most EKGs — when offered at all outside emergency rooms — are read by algorithm or interpreted days later by a remote cardiologist. Dr. Flávio reads your EKG himself, in the room, during your visit. His hospitalist experience across all four Lee County hospitals means he has interpreted cardiac events under high-stakes conditions — not just routine screenings.
Your Visit
Dr. Flávio reviews your cardiac history, current medications, symptoms, and risk factors before beginning the EKG. This context shapes what he looks for during interpretation.
Twelve electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs. You lie still for approximately 10 minutes while the device captures your cardiac electrical pattern. No pain. No needles.
Dr. Flávio interprets your EKG tracing immediately — on-site, in the room. He reviews each lead, identifies any abnormalities, and compares findings to your clinical history.
You leave with a clear understanding of your results. If follow-up is warranted — additional testing, specialist referral, or monitoring — Dr. Flávio coordinates it directly from this visit.

An EKG (electrocardiogram) records the electrical activity of your heart using 12 electrodes placed on the chest, arms, and legs. It can detect arrhythmias, evidence of prior heart attacks, signs of cardiac enlargement, conduction abnormalities, and early indicators of coronary artery disease — often before symptoms appear.
The EKG tracing itself takes approximately 10 minutes. Dr. Flávio reviews and interprets the results on-site during the same visit and discusses findings with you immediately — no waiting days for results.
An EKG is entirely non-invasive and painless. Electrodes are placed on the skin surface — nothing is inserted or injected. We recommend avoiding caffeine two hours beforehand if possible and wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. No fasting or medication changes are required.
Adults over 40, anyone with a family history of heart disease or sudden cardiac death, individuals experiencing palpitations, shortness of breath, or unexplained fatigue, those beginning a new exercise program, and patients on medications that can affect cardiac rhythm should strongly consider a baseline EKG. Dr. Flávio also includes EKG screening as part of concierge membership annual evaluations.
Dr. Flávio holds the AACC designation — Associate of the American College of Cardiology — one of the most recognized credentials in cardiovascular medicine. He has interpreted thousands of EKGs during his hospitalist work across all four Lee County hospitals and integrates cardiac findings into comprehensive functional and preventive health assessments.
An EKG is a powerful screening tool, but it is one component of cardiac assessment. If Dr. Flávio identifies abnormalities on your EKG, he will coordinate referral to a cardiologist. The value of on-site EKG screening is in early detection — catching concerns before they become emergencies and ensuring prompt specialist follow-up when needed.
Yes. EKG screening is included in Dr. Flávio's concierge membership programs as part of comprehensive annual evaluations. Members also benefit from priority scheduling, same-day access, and direct physician communication. Schedule a consultation to explore which membership tier is right for you.
