For anyone reporting chest pain or related symptoms, we aim to perform a 12-lead EKG within minutes of arrival — often before you're even taken to a treatment room.

No. An EKG is completely painless — small sensors are placed on your skin to record electrical activity, with no needles or discomfort involved.
How long does an EKG take?
The test itself takes just a few minutes. We aim to perform an EKG within minutes of arrival for anyone reporting chest pain or cardiac symptoms.
Can an EKG detect a heart attack?
An EKG can show signs consistent with a heart attack, such as specific changes in the heart's electrical pattern. It's typically combined with troponin testing for a complete evaluation.
Can urgent care do an EKG?
Some urgent care clinics offer basic EKG, but most lack the ability to act on an abnormal result — continuous monitoring, cardiac medications, and coordinated transfer. A true ER is the safer choice for cardiac symptoms.
