About Sydney Heart Health Clinic

Sydney Heart Health is a trusted provider of non-invasive cardiology services located on Sydney’s Upper North Shore. Our team includes seven highly experienced cardiologists, led by senior cardiologist and principal, Dr. Ross Walker.

Our Mission

At SHHC, we believe the best management of all forms of cardiovascular disease is not to develop it in the first place i.e. prevention. It is our opinion that over 90% of cardiovascular disease is preventable

With early detection and management, in most cases, the condition can be stabilised or even reversed.

SHHC adopts the 80:10:10 rule which involves an 80% focus on lifestyle through the five keys to good health; a 10% focus on the appropriate use of orthodox medical therapies, both pharmaceutical & procedures & 10% being the use of evidence-based supplementation.

All of our cardiologists offer state of the art therapies combined with a caring, compassionate approach allowing our patients the best possible outcomes regardless of the underlying diagnosis.
