I am a Consultant Cardiologist based at Worcestershire Royal Hospital, where I treat a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, including chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, and unexplained collapse.
My main clinical interests include: complex coronary intervention, coronary angioplasty, CT coronary angiography, evaluation of chest pain, investigation of palpitation and stenting procedures.
I graduated from St Mary’s Hospital Medical School, London in 1997 and completed my specialist cardiology training at the Bristol Heart Institute in 2011, gaining comprehensive experience in both general and interventional cardiology.
As an Interventional Cardiologist in Worcester, I am one of the consultants delivering the 24/7 emergency heart attack (primary PCI) service, providing urgent life‑saving treatment for patients across Worcestershire and the surrounding three counties.
Alongside my acute cardiology role, I maintain a strong interest in cardiovascular research and have published and presented work nationally and internationally. My recent research has focused on CT coronary angiography, an advanced, non‑invasive imaging technique for assessing coronary artery disease. I perform CT coronary angiography at Spire South Bank Hospital in Worcester, using a new state‑of‑the‑art CT scanner to deliver accurate and timely diagnosis.
My approach to patient care is thorough, evidence‑based, and patient‑centred, with a focus on clear communication and tailored treatment plans. I work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure patients receive the most appropriate investigations and treatments.
If you are looking for an experienced consultant cardiologist in Worcester, specialising in interventional cardiology, heart attack treatment, and CT coronary angiography, I provide expert assessment and care using modern diagnostic and interventional techniques.
