About me
Dr Scott is a Consultant Cardiologist at King's College Hospital. He manages all aspects of general cardiology but has particular expertise in diagnosing and treating heart rhythm problems.
He specialises in the interventional treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. This includes treating patients with palpitations, heart failure and atrial fibrillation. Much of his work involves catheter ablation, including atrial fibrillation ablation. In addition, he consults on a wide range of other heart conditions including chest pain, hypertension, heart failure, valvular heart disease and cardiovascular risk assessment.
Dr Scott graduated in medicine with honours from the University of Birmingham. He subsequently trained in general medicine and general cardiology in Cambridge and Southampton. Finally, he spent six years specialist training in the management of cardiac rhythm disorders. This included research for his MD at Southampton on implantable defibrillators. Dr Scott spent one year on Vancouver Island, Western Canada, undertaking advanced training in complex ablation. He completed his specialist training at the Hammersmith and St Mary’s Hospitals in London.
