About me
Dr Abozguia is a consultant cardiologist with expertise in electrophysiology and cardiac device implantation. He was trained in the United Kingdom and the United States. He performs catheter ablations for cardiac arrhythmias such as supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and atrial flutters as well as complex catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). He is experienced in general cardiology with expertise also in cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators. He has performed over a 1500 Ablations and Device implantations procedures.
He has IBHRE accreditation in electrophysiology (CEPS) and cardiac devices (CCDS) in the USA. He was awarded a PhD Degree in Cardiology, University of Birmingham, UK 2010. He has an extensive publishing record with 28 scientific papers in high-impact factor journals as well as 44 abstracts. He has performed a large number of scientific presentations at a national and international level (BCS, BHRS, ESC, ACC and AHA).
Dr Abozguia has a special interest in medical education and research. He is co-editor of education website ' ecardia.org'.
Areas of interest
Assessment of palpitation, dizzy spells, syncope, blackout, chest pain, breathlessness, reduced exercise tolerance and fatigue.
Heart rhythm disorders, arrhythmia, cardiac electrophysiology, pacing and complex device implantation; Inherited cardiomyopathy, hypertension, heart failure, valvular heart disease and coronary artery disease.
I carry out ablation treatment for patients with cardiac rhythm abnormalities such as supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), ventricular tachycardia (VT), atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial tachycardia and for accessory pathways.
I implant simple and complex pacemakers and defibrillators.
I report ECG, 24 hours tape, 24 hours Blood pressure monitor, stress test, tilt table test and echocardiograms.
