Dr Christopher Malkin

Consultant Interventional Cardiology

MB ChB(Hons) MD MRCP

"I practice at Spire for the excellent catheter laboratory facilities in the Manchester hospital that will allow me to offer complex structural procedures to my patients."

I am a high-volume interventional cardiologist working in one of the busiest centres in Europe. My expertise is in structural valve intervention and coronary intervention. I started performing TAVI in 2010 and have shaped the service and procedure both in my centre and nationally.

I am one of the most experienced TAVI implanters in the UK (>2000 implants personally performed since 2010) and have proctored/trained all major valve systems. I have performed 120 mitraclip procedures in the past 4 years. I have performed more than 2,000 as a consultant PCI procedures including 75. acute/emergency PCI procedures per year.

I am the clinical lead for trans-catheter mitral valve repair and a mitraclip proctor. I have personally trained several colleagues and fellows who are now interventional cardiologists in distinguished centres around the world.

I have an international profile with regular live cases, clinical research and lecturing in major meetings.
