Understanding high blood pressure

Blood pressure records the force of blood against the blood-vessel walls. A diagnosis should be based on properly taken readings and a physician’s assessment rather than a single home reading.

When to consult a physician

Arrange a consultation for repeatedly raised readings, headaches with high readings, dizziness, blurred vision, or concerns about existing diabetes, kidney disease or heart health.

What care may include

A consultation may include repeat blood-pressure measurement, review of medicines and lifestyle, assessment of related risks, appropriate investigations and an individual follow-up plan.

What patients can expect at Lotus Hospital

Consultation focuses on confirming reliable readings, reviewing current medicines and supplements, assessing cardiovascular and kidney risk, and agreeing on a practical monitoring plan. Tests are selected according to the individual rather than offered as a fixed package. Appointments with Dr. Ajay T. Parmar are arranged manually by phone or WhatsApp.

Preparing for a blood pressure consultation

Bring recent home readings, your BP monitor if available, all prescriptions, laboratory reports and a list of symptoms or side effects. Do not stop or change prescribed medicine before review. Patients from Krishnanagar, Nikol, Naroda and East Ahmedabad can use local follow-up for repeat measurements and medicine-safety checks.
