Well, not every doctor graduates at the top of their class. Some graduate at the bottom. ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
It is my understanding that one's Primary Care Physician can order an EchoCardiogram (that will be read by a Cardiologist) without the necessity of actually becoming the patient of that (or any) Cardiologist, at least in the USA (and probably an insurance plan that allows such orders).
I second the comment(s) to the effect that the EKG won't tell you much of anything about the condition of his Valves and Aorta. An EKG is a graph of the Heart's Electrical Behavior which determines Heart Rate and Rhythm.
