About me

I specialise in electrophysiology and complex device implantation. I completed my specialist training in cardiology and electrophysiology in Oxford followed by a fellowship in Bournemouth. I also spent some time training at the renowned Dublin centre.

I am skilled in all aspects of arrhythmia management including the diagnosis and treatment of palpitations and dysrhythmias. I have a particular interest in pacing and in complex pacing for heart failure.

I am also trained in echocardiography including transoesophageal echocardiography and diagnostic angiography.
