💙 Celebrating St Edmund – Our Namesake and Inspiration

Today, we proudly celebrate and remember St Edmund, the Patron Saint of England and King of East Anglia — a symbol of courage, faith, and unwavering dedication to others. His legacy continues to inspire our community every day.

At St Edmunds Hospital, we are honoured to carry his name — a reminder of compassion, courage, and service at the heart of everything we do.

And to mark this special day, we’re delighted to be serving traditional fish and chips from the lovely guys at The Cod fellas to our wonderful staff (some of the less camera shy pictured here), with all donations going directly to our chosen charity, Suffolk Mind.

What Is an Echocardiogram?

An echocardiogram, often called an echo, is a simple, painless scan that lets doctors see inside your heart and the blood vessels around it. It shows your heart’s structure and helps check how well it’s working.

An echo is a type of ultrasound. A small handheld probe sends out high-frequency soundwaves that bounce off parts of your heart. These echoes are captured and turned into moving images on a screen — giving a real-time look at your heart in action.

It’s important not to confuse an echocardiogram with an electrocardiogram (ECG):
👉 An ECG measures your heart’s electrical activity using electrodes.
👉 An echocardiogram looks at your heart’s structure and function using ultrasound.

We’re proud to share that Mr Navazh Jalaludeen, our Consultant Cardiac Physiologist, specialises in performing comprehensive adult Transthoracic and Transoesophageal echocardiograms, ensuring you receive the highest level of expertise and care. ❤️

📅 Take control of your heart health — book your echocardiogram today!
