I am a Consultant Cardiologist and Interventional Cardiologist at Spire Norwich Hospital and Spire Ella May Barnes Clinic in Norwich, Norfolk specialising in the investigation and treatment of coronary artery disease (angina) and blocked heart arteries, including coronary angiography and coronary angioplasty (PCI).
Chest pain can be worrying. While most chest pain is not caused by heart disease, it is important to rule out blocked heart arteries (coronary artery disease), which can lead to angina or heart attacks if untreated.
I regularly assess patients with chest pain, suspected coronary artery disease or heart failure and can arrange rapid investigation, including coronary angiography where appropriate. When a significant narrowing is identified, angioplasty with stent treatment can often be performed during the same admission, avoiding the need for multiple procedures or hospital visits. These minimally invasive procedures can relieve angina, improve quality of life and help prevent heart attacks.
I welcome referrals for patients with chest pain, suspected angina, abnormal cardiac tests, breathlessness, high blood pressure, palpitations, atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) and can arrange prompt investigation and treatment where required. Other investigations and treatment I undertake are intravascular imaging including optical coherence tomography (OCT), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), pressure wire assessment (FFR/iFR), echocardiography, complex coronary intervention and stroke intervention.
I am committed to providing clear explanations, compassionate care and personalised treatment plans so that every patient feels informed and confident about their heart health.
My goal is to provide safe, evidence‑based care for patients across Norwich, Norfolk, and the surrounding region, ensuring quick access to expert cardiac diagnosis and treatment at Spire Norwich Hospital and Spire Ella May Barnes Clinic.
Alongside my clinical work, I am actively involved in international clinical trials as a Principal Investigator, the latest being a randomised trial comparing drug-coated balloons with drug-eluting stents for coronary artery disease. This work helps ensure that my patients benefit from the latest evidence-based cardiovascular treatments.
Educational and Mentorship Contributions include being the Regional Education Director for Interventional Cardiology (East of England) since 2017, organising comprehensive training days for registrars, fostering a collaborative learning environment. I am also a visiting Lecturer, University of East Anglia where I have delivered lectures on cardiovascular disease and ward-based teaching to medical students.
