Dr Ruba Haddad is a Cardiologist (Heart Specialist) based in St Leonards, NSW. She works from the North Shore Health Hub, Tower A, Level 2, Suite 1, 7 Westbourne St., St Leonards NSW 2065.
Heart health can be confusing, especially when symptoms show up out of the blue. Dr Haddad helps people understand what might be going on and what tests can clarify things. Appointments are often about making sure the basics are covered, like checking blood pressure and getting an eye on heart rhythm.
In many cases, she looks after adults who want support with everyday heart health and risk. That can include concerns around high blood pressure, cholesterol, or ongoing heart rate changes. At times, visits are also for people who’ve been feeling chest discomfort, breathlessness, palpitations, or who just feel “not quite right”. The goal is to sort out what’s happening early, then plan sensible next steps.
Her clinic services include blood pressure checks, EKG (electrocardiogram) tests, cholesterol screening, and heart rate monitoring. These checks are useful for spotting patterns and making sure the heart is working the way it should. An EKG can help show rhythm issues, while monitoring can give clearer information over time, especially when symptoms come and go.
Dr Haddad speaks English and Arabic, which can make things easier if English isn’t your first language. Clear communication matters with heart care, because small details can help explain symptoms and test results.
There’s no one-size-fits-all in cardiology. Some people only need a review and a few tests. Others need more follow-up after results come back. Over time, the care approach stays practical and grounded, focused on accurate checks, understandable explanations, and a plan that fits with day-to-day life.
For anyone looking for a heart specialist in St Leonards, Dr Ruba Haddad offers straightforward cardiology support through key heart checks like blood pressure monitoring, cholesterol screening, and EKG testing, plus heart rate monitoring when it helps to build a clearer picture.
