Primary Care
Know your insurance responsibilities - Frustration is an understatement when you have waited 2 or 3 months to get an appointment with a specialist and you arrive at the Reception Window only to be asked for your referral (which you neglected to get) from your Primary Care Physician. It is your responsibility to know what your insurance company requires. If you do not bring your insurance card and required referral, your new doctor cannot see you. This is the policy of your insurance company. There are many different insurers and policies with each having different requirements such as co-pays, deductibles, and liability for the patient going “out of network.” The patient’s lack of preparation most probably will lead to him/her being sent home to wait for another appointment. Contact your insurance company to fully understand your benefits and requirements.

High Cholesterol
Emergency Care
NEW BRUNSWICK — Yesterday morning, a 50-year-old man came to the emergency room at St. Peter's University Hospital in New Brunswick complaining of chest pains. There, he was met by cardiologist Dr. Dinesh Singal.
Colonoscopy
Know your test results - It is vital for you to bring to your first visit any kind of test results you may have, such as blood work, stress tests and EKGs, colonoscopy reports and X-ray reports, etc. How can your doctor know how to interpret tests he/she hasn’t seen? What ends up happening many times is that the new doctor has the patient sign a release to get the tests from a hospital or another physician’s office and then has the patient return after a month for a follow-up visit that could have been avoided. Being prepared is the name of the game! A piece of paper which you received in a doctor’s office and which you may not understand may mean a lot to a medical professional, and may save you unnecessary and costly repeat testing.
Electrocardiogram
He spent the next nine days being monitored in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). There was another EKG, a cardiac catheterization, and another echocardiogram, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a stress test. No significant abnormalities were found, but the dangerous heart rhythms continued. Subhashini A. Gowda, MD, a cardiologist with the New Brunswick Cardiology Group in Somerset, determined that Mr. Dunham was experiencing ventricular tachycardia, or recurrent symptomatic abnormal heart rhythms.

Internal Medicine
Dr. Kulkarni is an Invasive Cardiologist practicing at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and St. Peter's Medical Center in New Brunswick, New Jersey. He received his residency training at Our Lady of Mercy Medical Center, Bronx, New York, and his Cardiology Fellowship at UMDNJ/Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, and Episcopal Hospital, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dr. Kulkarni is Board Certified in Cardiovascular Diseases and Internal Medicine. He performs cardiac catheterization. Dr. Kulkarni is certified in Nuclear Cardiology. He has done medical research in angina, angioplasty and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

Ultrasound
An echocardiogram (echo) is a graphic outline of the heart's movement. During an echo test, ultrasound (high-frequency sound waves) from a hand-held wand placed on your chest provides pictures of the heart's valves and chambers and helps the sonographer evaluate the pumping action of the heart. An intravenous contrast may be administered to enhance imaging.
MRI
At New Brunswick Cardiology Group we are proud of our Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) program for detecting, managing and treating lower extremity arterial disease. Techniques used to diagnose PVD include a medical history, physical exam, ultrasound, X-ray angiography and magnetic resonance imaging angiography (MRA). If PVD is diagnosed, our specialists will help you plan a course of treatment that may include lifestyle changes, medications or both. In a minority of patients, lifestyle modifications alone aren't sufficient. In these cases, angioplasty or surgery may be necessary. In those instances our cardiovascular interventionalists will perform the procedure using the most minimally invasive methods available.
X-Rays
Nuclear Medicine
New Brunswick Cardiology Group performs all exercise and nuclear stress tests in its Nationally Accredited Nuclear Medicine Department, using state-of-the-art technology. C-Cam, this award winning dual head Gamma Camera includes a reclining chair that provides increased patient comfort, which leads to better image quality and increased diagnostic confidence.

Ulcer
Know your family history - What illnesses did your father, mother, grandfather, etc. have that contributed to their death and illness? What hospitalizations did they have? Did they have high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, ulcer disease, etc.? Did they have heart murmurs, fainting spells, die at early ages, or were they hospitalized for anything? Knowing “where you came from” can help your doctor determine where you are headed and allow him/her to help you prevent disease from happening. Don’t forget that family history doesn’t only mean your parents; it means your siblings and children as well (for instance, if your daughter has a murmur caused by mitral valve prolapse, this could alert your doctor to be on the lookout for something similar in you). Your physician will be alerted to treat your high cholesterol more aggressively if he/she knows that your father died of a massive heart attack at age 50.
