EKG Testing in Kennebunk, ME
Your heart’s rhythm tells a story about your health. At Mainely Primary Care in Kennebunk, we make sure that story is heard clearly. Our in-office EKG (electrocardiogram) testing helps detect heart irregularities early, guiding you toward the care you need. With direct primary care (DPC), there is no barrier to obtaining an EKG; the procedure is included in your membership and adds to our principle of making care easier to access and more affordable.
Why You Might Need an EKG
An EKG is one of the most valuable tools for evaluating your heart’s electrical activity. While it’s a simple, painless procedure, the information it provides can be lifesaving. You might need an EKG if you experience symptoms such as:​
-
Palpitations or fluttering heart
-
Shortness of breath
-
Dizziness or fainting
-
Irregular or rapid heartbeats
-
Fatigue during normal activity
-
High blood pressure or high cholesterol
Your provider may also recommend an EKG if you have a family history of heart disease, are over 40 and beginning a new exercise routine, or take medications that could affect your heart rhythm. Even if you’re not experiencing obvious symptoms, an EKG can serve as a valuable baseline for preventive care—especially in a primary care setting like Mainely Primary Care, where your health is tracked over time.
***Our EKG service is NOT indicated for acute chest pain or concerns of heart attack. We are not an emergency room and use an EKG as a screening tool to better understand our patients.***
What an EKG Does
An electrocardiogram measures the electrical impulses that make your heart beat. Each beat produces a series of signals that tell your heart when to contract and pump blood. The EKG records these signals as wave patterns, which can reveal whether your heart is beating too fast, too slow, or irregularly.
At Mainely Primary Care, your EKG is performed in a comfortable, relaxed environment. Small electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to detect your heart’s electrical signals. The test takes only a few minutes and provides immediate results for your provider to review.
An EKG can detect:​
-
Irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
-
Signs of a previous or current heart attack
-
Poor blood flow to the heart (ischemia)
-
Enlarged heart chambers due to high blood pressure or valve disease
-
Electrolyte imbalances that affect heart rhythm
By performing EKGs in-house, we save you time and give you the peace of mind that comes from having real answers without needing to visit an outside facility.
We Take A Holistic View of Your Heart Health
At Mainely Primary Care, we don’t just treat what the test shows—we look at your overall picture of wellness. Your heart health is influenced by everything from your diet and exercise habits to your stress levels and sleep quality. If your EKG reveals an issue, our providers take the time to explore every angle, ensuring you receive care that addresses both the symptoms and their root causes.
Through the DPC model, you can schedule follow-up visits without worrying about extra costs. This allows us to closely monitor your condition, adjust medications if needed, and support lifestyle changes that keep your heart strong.

The Direct Primary Care Advantage
At Mainely Primary Care, we believe healthcare should be simple, affordable, and focused on you—not insurance paperwork. That’s why we operate under the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model.
In DPC, patients pay a low monthly membership fee that covers unlimited visits, extended appointments, and direct access to their provider. That means you can text, call, or visit your doctor whenever you need—without worrying about surprise bills or waiting weeks for an appointment.
Here’s what’s included in your DPC membership:
-
Unlimited office visits for acute and chronic care
-
Preventive screenings and physical exams
-
Discounted labs and in-house testing (including EKGs)
-
Direct messaging with your provider

Transparent, affordable pricing for any additional procedures
DPC gives you control over your healthcare while fostering a long-term relationship with a provider who truly knows you. Because we’re not tied to insurance billing, we can spend more time with each patient, focusing on education, prevention, and wellness instead of quick fixes.
