Young Hearts for Life

Wheaton Pediatrics has partnered with the Young Hearts for Life cardiac screening program.  Wheaton Pediatrics will provide ECGs (electrocardiograms) to their patients between the ages of 12-25 at no charge.  An ECG is painless test that can help to detect conditions that may result in sudden cardiac death.  The ECG will be interpreted by a cardiologist from Young Hearts for Life. This is the same test that is done at some area high schools as a mass screening. Wheaton Pediatrics is the first and one of the few practices to bring this screen to the office setting.
