Dr Abhay Bajpai

I am a Consultant Cardiologist and Interventional Electrophysiologist based at Epsom Hospital and St George's Hospital NHS Trust, London.

My key interests are in management of heart rhythm disorders, autonomic dysfunction, syncope and risk stratification in cardiac disorders. I perform all varieties of complex and standard ablation procedures for correction of heart rhythm disorders (eg radiofrequency ablation and cryo ablation for atrial fibrillation, flutter, all forms of SVT and ventricular arrhythmias), implantation of cardiac devices including pacemakers, loop recorders, cardiac defibrillators (ICD) and cardiac resynchronisation devices for heart failure (CRTP and CRTD devices).

My interests include atrial fibrillation; atrial flutter; supraventricular tachycardia; ventricular tachycardia; ventricular fibrillation; long QT syndrome; slow heart rhythm; heart failure; blackouts; syncope; palpitations; chest pains; breathlessness; inherited cardiac conditions; cardiomyopathy; cardiac ablation procedures; pacemakers; loop recorders; cardiac defibrillators; cardiac resynchronisation devices for heart failure; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; dilated cardiomyopathy; risk stratification; risk factor management; hypertension; hyperlipidaemia or raised cholesterol.

I have several book chapters and articles in my name and am regularly involved in clinical research projects at St George's Hospital. I am the clinical lead for Arrhythmia Services at Epsom and St Helier NHS Trust and an Honorary Lecturer at St George's University, London. I am the Medical Director for Surrey Arrhythmia Support Group, a patient charity dedicated to patient education and community screening programmes.
