Can Echo Show Correct Results Of Heart After Passing Out?

My son had a ekg after passing out and the doctor said it showed something minor on the results.She suggested he see a cardiologist,however the appointments are months away. Will an echo show if he has anything wrong with his heart that needs to be treated sooner than later? He is 14 years old, 134 lbs, and 5'7. His blood pressure and suger levelwere both normal.

hello there
EkG has normal variants all the time
What appears abnormal is actually a variant.. for instance incomplete right bundle branch block or an inverted T wave.
An echo will be helpful but an EKG itself is deductive enough

Hope for the best
