what is the etymological meaning of the word: ''CARDIOLOGISTS''??

it is a greek word. ''kardia''=heart and ''logos''=word, talk, utterance.
so, ''cardiologist'' is the person who speaks (is specialized in) about the heart.

''Cardio-'' comes from the Greek word for heart, ''kardia'';

''-ology'' and ''-ologist'' come from the Greek word ''logos meaning word, reason.
