He became Research Lead in cardiology in his hospital in 2011, Cardiovascular Research Lead for the West Midlands NIHR Clinical Research Network in 2012, and Chair for the Midlands Heart Failure Group in the same year. He was appointed Honorary Professor of Cardiology by Coventry University in April 2016 and by the University of Warwick (Warwick Medical School) in August 2019. He currently holds all these positions. He held the position of clinical lead for cardiology at UHCW NHS Trust from December 2019 until June 2021.
In the clinical field he has devoted himself to achieve excellence in heart failure care by bringing in passion, energy, innovation, insight and expertise. This is exemplified in the work of the team of ten heart failure specialist nurses and two consultants that he is privileged to lead, and in the services provided by this team including day care intravenous diuretics and iron, a robust and large community heart failure service, ultrafiltration for refractory fluid overload, device therapy, cardiac rehabilitation and unique clinics for difficult patients such as those with cardiorenal syndrome, cardiac amyloidosis and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF). He also runs and participates in community and hospital MDT meetings for heart failure and AL Amyloidosis.
