Some math, but...: Being a cardiologist doesn't take as much math-studying as being a civil engineer, an architect, an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer, or a computer scientist. So, a hard-working student who is a "people-person" can go into any medical field and not worry that it has too much math.

No. You have to study internal medicine first

Saw cardiologist who said no heart failure, BP stable. He said only take lisinopril 5, crestor (rosuvastatin). Is that good? I'm 90. My friends take lots of pills.
