Dr Ricardo Petraco

Consultant Cardiologist

MD MRCP PhD


Specialises in

I am a general and interventional consultant cardiologist with a large experience and particular interest in the investigation of chest pains and the treatment of angina and heart attacks.

I specialise in the field of coronary intervention (coronary angiograms and stenting) and I am recognised internationally for my work in the field of coronary artery disease.

I have performed thousands of percutaneous coronary heart procedures and I travel internationally to teach and proctor healthcare colleagues on how to perform such operations with optimal guidance and high precision, using tools I have helped to develop at Imperial College London.

I have authored many publications in my field and hold academic positions at Imperial College London, where I continue to do research to progress the field forward.
