About
As a Consultant Cardiologist, my priority is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care in a way that makes you feel informed, reassured, and supported throughout your journey. I believe the best cardiology begins with listening carefully, understanding your concerns, and working together to create a clear and personalised plan for your heart health.
Clinical Expertise
I specialise in assessing and treating a wide range of cardiovascular symptoms, including chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations, dizziness, high blood pressure, and cholesterol disorders.
I also have a particular specialist interest in heart valve disease, with expertise in pioneering minimally invasive valve treatments such as TAVI and TEER. These advanced procedures allow many of my patients to receive highly effective treatment without the need for traditional open-heart surgery.
Academic & Professional Background
I have always been committed to achieving the highest standards of clinical and academic excellence for my patients. I graduated from University College London (UCL) with Distinction in Medicine and a First Class Honours degree in Physiology, receiving multiple academic awards including the prestigious University of London Gold Medal in Medicine (Proxime Accessit).
Later in my career, I completed a highly competitive Medical Research Council-funded PhD at the National Heart & Lung Institute, Imperial College London, focused on coronary artery disease, angina, exercise physiology, and coronary stenting (PCI).
Alongside my clinical work, I continue an active academic career with Anglia Ruskin University and regularly lecture and train cardiologists internationally within the fields of interventional and structural cardiology.
For my patients, this means being cared for by a cardiologist with extensive specialist training, a strong evidence-based approach, and experience at the forefront of modern cardiovascular medicine.
Clinical Training
With more than 16 years of clinical experience, I completed specialist cardiology training at several of the UK’s leading heart centres, including the Royal Brompton Hospital, Harefield Hospital, St Mary’s Hospital, and Hammersmith Hospital.
This broad foundation in general and interventional cardiology was followed by advanced fellowship training in structural and valvular heart disease at the Essex Cardiothoracic Centre, where I now practise as an NHS Consultant Cardiologist.
A Personalised Approach
While academic achievement and specialist expertise are important, my focus always remains on the individual patient sitting in front of me. Patients often value my calm, approachable manner and the time I take to explain complex medical issues clearly and honestly.
Whether you are seeking reassurance, a diagnosis, ongoing management, or a specialist second opinion, my aim is to provide expert, compassionate care that allows you to move forward with clarity and confidence.
“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
