Dr David Wilson

I am a cardiologist based at the Worcester Royal Hospital. I am fully trained in all aspects of cardiology and have particular interest in heart function and cardiac rhythm management.

I see patients with all manner of cardiac symptoms including patients with problems related to shortness of breath, palpitations, chest pain, dizzy spells and loss of consciousness.

I undertake the following procedures: permanent pacemaker implantation, implantation of cardiac resynchronisation therapy and implantation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.

I am accredited by the British Society of Echocardiography (BSE) in adult trans-thoracic echocardiography and Heart Rhythm UK (HRUK - devices).

I qualified from Manchester medical school in 2003, where I also studied in Lausanne, Switzerland in my final year. I was awarded membership to the royal college of physicians in 2006.

I completed an international fellowship in cardiac rhythm management in Wellington, New Zealand in 2011 and was awarded a Doctor of Medicine from the University of Southampton in 2017 for research undertaken in subcutaneous implantable cardioverter. I was appointed as a consultant cardiologist at Worcester Royal Hospital in 2016.

I have been appointed as the Associate Medical Director for research and development at the Worcestershire Acute Hospital Trust and I have published over 20 articles in peer-reviewed medical journals, presented my research at international medical conferences and authored chapters in medical textbooks.

I am also actively involved in medical training and work regularly with the British Cardiac Society as part of their simulator training program.
