EKG & Heart Health Screening in Loxahatchee
At our Loxahatchee office on Southern Blvd, Dr. Gurpreet Singh Sareen performs in-office EKGs as part of a regular primary care visit — no separate cardiology referral and no second appointment needed to get a baseline reading.
What to expect
- The EKG performed in-office during your visit
- A review of your results with your provider
- A conversation about any recommended next steps based on your individual situation
- The option to schedule follow-up care if your provider recommends it
Why an EKG is often added to a visit
An EKG records the heart's electrical activity and takes only a few minutes in the office. Dr. Sareen may recommend one as part of a routine physical, before starting certain medications, or if you report symptoms like chest discomfort, palpitations, or shortness of breath — the same visit covers the test and the conversation about what it shows.
Part of ongoing internal medicine care
Because Dr. Sareen is board certified in internal medicine, an EKG result is read in the context of your full chart — blood pressure trends, any chronic conditions, and medications you're already on — rather than as an isolated number.

Heart health beyond a single reading
An EKG is a snapshot, not a complete cardiac workup — Dr. Sareen uses it alongside your blood pressure history, weight, and any chronic conditions to decide whether anything further, such as a referral to cardiology, is warranted. For most patients, a normal in-office reading is simply one more data point confirming things look stable.
After your reading
You'll know the result before you leave the office. If Dr. Sareen sees anything that needs a closer look, he'll explain the next step — whether that's a repeat reading at a future visit, additional testing, or a referral — in plain language, during the same appointment.
Led by a board-certified internist
Dr. Sareen is board certified in internal medicine (ABIM) and brings emergency-room experience into how he evaluates a heart-rhythm reading — he's looking at it as one part of your overall picture, not as a stand-alone test ordered and forgotten.
Insurance and scheduling
We work with plans including Aetna, Florida Blue, and United Healthcare, along with Medicare and Medicaid. Call (561) 879-4006 to schedule or to confirm your coverage before your visit.
Who typically considers heart screening
Adults with a family history of heart disease, those managing high blood pressure or high cholesterol, and anyone noticing new symptoms such as palpitations or unusual fatigue are common candidates for an EKG as part of a routine visit. It's a low-effort way to add a data point to your record, whether or not anything is actively wrong.
No extra trip required
Because the EKG machine is in the same office where Dr. Sareen sees you for primary care, adding a reading to today's visit means one trip, one provider, and one conversation about the result — not a separate referral to a cardiology office across town.
Do I need a referral for an EKG at the Loxahatchee office?
No — Dr. Sareen can perform and read an EKG as part of a regular office visit, with no outside referral required. Same-day appointments and walk-ins are welcome, and our staff can confirm your insurance coverage before you come in.
How long does an in-office EKG take?
The test itself takes only a few minutes — small sensors are placed on your chest and limbs to record your heart's electrical activity while you lie still. Your provider reviews the reading with you during the same visit, so there's no separate appointment to come back for.
When might my provider recommend an EKG?
An EKG may be added to a routine physical, ordered before starting certain medications, or recommended if you report symptoms such as chest discomfort, a racing or irregular heartbeat, or unexplained shortness of breath. Dr. Sareen will explain the reason for the test and what the result means for your care.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring a photo ID, your insurance card, a current medication list, and any recent lab or imaging results you have from other providers. Arriving a few minutes early to complete any remaining paperwork helps your visit start on time, and same-day appointments and walk-ins are welcome if you need to be seen quickly.
Does Serenity By A Dr. Sareen accept Medicare and Medicaid?
Yes. Serenity By A Dr. Sareen accepts Medicare and Medicaid, along with major commercial insurance, at our South Florida offices, including for EKG and heart health screening. Call (561) 879-4006 and our staff will confirm your specific plan before scheduling your Loxahatchee visit.
