See a physician: Hi! the diabetes and angina are medical problems that increase your father's risk of stroke or tia. He needs to have an evaluation by an internist or neurologist asap.

Have it evaluated: A person with chest pain needs to be evaluated and treated appropriately. Multiple possible causes may be: heart attack, esophageal reflux, anxiety, musculoskeletal, pneumonia, pulmonary embolus, and aortic dissection. Have it evaluated right away to prevent potential serious complications.
